It's clear to me that the 24% are the smartest people in the country.
At least they are aware of the revenue that the government makes by stealing the patents for products such as cheeze whiz and Oxyclean!
Or maybe, just maybe, we could finally get off of our moral high horses and eliminate the illegality of certain "hobbies."
If prostitution, marijuana, and online gambling were all legal, regulated, and fairly taxed, the revenue streams would be pretty substantial methinks.
And didn't you know that Al Gore thought of those things while pondering the challenges of bit packaging and bandwidth considerations while inventing the internet? He donated those patents to the Carter administraion to be owned in perpetuity.
