    Default Happy 4th of July

    The online poker scene is a mess in the US right now but there's no place in the world I'd rather live.

    I do wish we could have some independence with online poker instead of having the government tell us it is "dangerous" or whatever.

    It's required by law in 49 states.

    In Texas, it's not a law, they just shoot you if they hear you suggest that you don't love freedom.

    Yeah, our incarceration rate is the highest in the world and we don't have online poker. Lots of work to do...

    You do have weed though...

    British freedom is also an amusing concept.

    True, we have it recreationally in Colorado and Washington. In California anyone can get the medical marijuana card so it is widely available there too. It is nice to see things changing with weed and the war on drugs.

    The war on drugs was one of those things that didn't sound terrible (everyone wants to keep drugs away from kids) but it ended up being a disaster. It is one of the main reasons why our incarceration rate is the highest in the world. IMO prison should be for violent criminals, not so much for small-time drug dealers.
