Governments have their priorities. Perhaps they run approximately so:because of a half trillion dollars they already spent and they need folks to keep smoking
- Get re-elected
- Make a lot of money
- Make the public pay
Ever wonder why traffic cops in the US are such a nuisance? Well, just think about it. It costs cities money to catch real crooks. They make money writing traffic tickets. Here in Mexico we have almost no traffic enforcement. If a cop does stop you, you just give him ten bucks and he goes away.
I am not a Trump fan. I think he is a bad human being. (But so is Hillary.) But I also think Trump just may do a something to start getting the government off of Americans' backs. I got the hell out of there. Mexico is like America was when I was a kid in the 1940's and 1950's. You can do pretty much what you want to here as long as you don't hurt people or destroy their property.
