POPSPart 2 The Marijuana Trick In September of 1937, hemp became illegal. The most useful crop known became a drug and our planet has been suffering ever since. Congress banned hemp because it was said to be the most violence-causing drug known. Anslinger, head of the Drug Commission for 31 years, promoted the idea that marihuana made users act extremely violent. In the 1950s, under the Communist threat of McCarthyism, Anslinger now said the exact opposite. Marijuana will pacify you so much that soldiers would not want to fight. Read MORE at source..........

POPSBoomers vs. 13ers re: Roman Polanski More While the adults were out there finding themselves, getting divorced, giving us the key and leaving a frozen dinner on the counter, making movies about what demonic little baskets of evil children were, constantly reminding us that we were destined to be the first generation not to do better than our parents, building suburbia, reveling in all the cheap oil and abundant natural resources (and the healthy economy that came from exploiting them) and generally telling us what a horrible generation we were (and why couldn't we be more like that " Greatest Generation " anyway?), we were coming of age. I'm not at all surprised that it's younger artists in Hollywood who are neither sufficiently enthralled by Polanski's artistic reputation (nor moved by his Holocaust experience) to excuse him drugging and raping a 13-year-old. As a generation, we've been getting that sort of treatment from our elders from day 1

POPSJones,Jarrett=Reflections of the Boss. Van Jones is not the main point. HE IS A SYMPTOM!! Valerie Jarrett proclaims admiringly how they'd watched him closely as he rose. These are the people Obama holds dear, perceiving as "normal". Their goal has been to change OUR perceptions to seeing these people and mutations of policy as normal. The challenge is, & will be, to actually have a "normal" - solid, hopeful, center-right, productive, moral, & ethical - America to return to AFTER THE RADICALS ARE EXPOSED. Is it dying with the boomers' parents, followed by the boomers? As that memory fades, is this radical change really inevitable?

POPSElderly Drug Abuse on the Rise - Pot The article: Baby Boomers and Elderly Often Overlooked Substance Abusers cites the research below as the base for the discussion. I clipped the research link so I could get back to the graphs. It's quite shocking. Grandma and Grandpa are smoking as much pot as their grand-teens. "Just as teens are having problems with prescription drugs, baby boomers, and the elderly often suffer more for their use and abuse of these drugs. It is extremely important then for you to monitor any family member who is elderly. Gathering as much information as possible about drug abuse is your first step. It may be a cliché, but forewarned is forearmed." (It's 10 o'clock...do you know where your Granny is? All kidding aside, I can see why the older population would be even more susceptible to substance abuse. They have a lot more to deal with in this screwy economy than we do. Escapism exists at all levels).

POPSToo Small Too Late, Out of Money The unintended consequence of government spending, bailouts , and other nonsensical problems the politician believes can be fixed with money, will rest on the backs of the boomers. This time, I think they are tired of carrying the "perfect society social programs" without defining what they are getting at the end of the line? No SS increases, Death panels, and govt. bureaucracy???

POPSWant to Stimulate the Economy? Lower the Retirement Age to 55 Now! Is this the real answer or is that the same argument we were given in Spain. Now kids rarely find a job until they are 25+ and retired people are replaced by technical devices. Employment is gradually being reduced to feeding the wealthy while the workers..... Who cares about the workers any more?

POPSFred Thompson on ObamaCare Atrocity Betsy McCaughey, one of the very few who have read the entire ObamaCare bill, details a few of the Naziesque horrors our progressive leaders would like to inflict on us! GovernmentCare’s Assault on Seniors By Betsy McCaughey Since Medicare was established in 1965, access to care has enabled older Americans to avoid becoming disabled and to travel and live independently instead of languishing in nursing homes. But legislation now being rushed through Congress"H.R. 3200 and the Senate Health Committee Bill"will reduce access to care, pressure the elderly to end their lives prematurely, and doom baby boomers to painful later years. The Congressional majority wants to pay for its $1 trillion to $1.6 trillion health bills with new taxes and a $500 billion cut to Medicare. This cut will come just as baby boomers turn 65 and increase Medicare enrollment by 30%.

POPSSocial Security Administration $700,000 Getaway The Social Security San Francisco regional office anticipated spending about $700,000 on the convention, which started mid-day Tuesday and wrapped up Thursday afternoon for approximately 675 attendees. It will not know the actual cost until it collects and pays vouchers submitted by employees. Employees were required to pay their own expenses for entertainment, including a trip to a local casino. It was the first time that the regional office held such a conference since 2001, and agency officials say the meeting was well worth the expense. Leslie Walker, the Social Security Administration's regional communications director, said the agency was grappling with a wave of Baby Boomers who are becoming eligible for Social Security. At the convention, managers learned how to train employees on cost-saving measures such as encouraging the public to process documents via the Internet.
