>> Right-wing pols are against this? REALLY?

Right and left are more interested in the campaign dollars they get from drug prohibition than they are in doing the right things. As they both are when it comes to anti-poverty programs.

Both programs are examples where politicians are motivated by the campaign dollars rather than by what is right for the country. Many Democrats stupidly believe anti-poverty programs work (in spite of 50 years of failure) and many Republicans stupidly believe the War on Drugs works (in spite of 50 years of failure).

Their beliefs are colored by the money the programs put in their campaign coffers. And the people are too stupid to know it.
