Wow! Very impassioned...and I kinda agree! I also agree with the quote above, emphasizing on education instead of regulation...that makes the most sense to me...It's like a few years back when they were going to teach "absitinance" in schools instead of sex-ed with education about protection, I mean come on! Gov't needs to get their so-called head out of their ass!

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Taurus

Get involved in financial transactions at your peril under today's Lunar Eclipse, because certain people will use them as a stick to beat you with. For instance, if you ask someone to lend you money they'll either make you feel guilty about it or dredge up all sorts of past instances when their trust was betrayed. You would also be well advised to avoid any show of possessiveness or jealousy, even if you feel it, unless you truly don't care about the disastrous outcome.
