New Jersey is an absolute swamp of democratic corruption, we also just had a law passed that harshly restricts breweries because they were taking business away from restaurants and the restaurant lobby is in the pockets of the democratic lawmakers. The restrictions were already bad, breweries were not allowed to have a kitchen and most of them had food trucks parked out front as a result. With the new law they are now banned from coordinating with food trucks (not sure how they plan to enforce that) and they cannot make any money from food sales. On top of that, they are only allowed one private party per week and 25 public events per year (so no weekly trivia or anything of that nature). It’s enraging. and so transparently intended to punish them for doing well. https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/nj-brewers-frothing-over-new-restrictions/3291455/

Also the only state in the nation with legalized recreational cannabis where homegrow is illegal. The cheapest flower you can buy at dispensaries is $60/eighth.

Average cop salary is over $120k.

“Mamalukes”? Like, enslaved prisoners of war in medieval Islam, who must buy their freedom with military service? Sounds about right.

  • The US has serious problems of human trafficking and forced labor. It still has not ratified the Forced Labour Convention (1930), the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women. Every year, nearly 100,000 people are smuggled into the US for forced labor. Today, there are at least half a million people enslaved in the US; roughly 240,000 to 325,000 women and children are victims of sexual slavery.
