Former US House speaker to promote legalizing marijuana

Why can't they think these things through when they are in Office, before they make and take positions on things?

There's money to be made now. The lobbying and palm-greasing alone makes it worthwhile. He couldn't have reaped the spoils to this extent while in office.

I detest people who will do anything for "money".... Fair and Honest Business is what I like and what I respect !!!

I have absolutely no regard for business that puts money first!!! Honest Service should be the base motivation for any business, and if they "honor that" they will gain fair and honest profits.

Anything else is a desecration against society and individuals in the general public.

Money will never have the value of what "honor and integrity" represents in the human sphere of living.
