Reply #60: Not one crook on Wall Sreet had their billions taken from them.

[AnArmyVeteran]

It's sickening how the government can seize all of the property from people who have even a small quantity of drugs, but you can steal billions and destroy our economy and not be punished at all. If you steal enough you get to keep the millions or billions you steal.

Drug forfeiture laws need to be eliminated and instead have the government seize stolen property and cash from wealthy white collar criminals. No one at BP or on Wall Street have spent a day in jail even though their crimes destroyed our environment or the economy. The reason why the rich are insulated from any punishments are because they own our government and they write our laws.

We need white collar forfeiture laws to take every dime, mansion and luxury car from anyone guilty of stealing more than a million dollars. And then force these criminals to never be able to accumulate more than $12,000 a year for the rest of these lives. At least then they might begin to understand how their criminal actions caused great harm to others.

We need to END the war on drugs and legalize their use, especially marijuana.
