RE: The Law Of Unintended Consequences: Trump's War On Opioids
I don't use them because I enjoy it... without them, I'm bedridden and I am NOT going to spend the rest of my life unable to move! I expected more out of him for the reason you mentioned as well... this thing with N Korea showed his true colors to me. If the sanctions were relaxed and people could eat- you'd see a completely different world view there- maybe even a move toward democracy.
yup. I get that...but my point is that even if you were using for pleasure, it is not my business or anyone elses in the first place ;>
I'll dispute you about a detail on the norks...the norks are starving b'c of Fat Kim's distribution policy, not due to sanctions. Fat Kim is using hunger as a means of population control, as the Soviets did in the Holdomor
I'm certain you know more than I about NK... I don't watch news- basically it was an uneducated guess!
certainly a plausible one.
sanctions are usually a bad way to influence a State; the citizens suffer, not the rulers
so we usually use sanctions derpy derp!
I just look at sanctions as a prelude to war... they seem to accomplish nothing else!
