I'd love to play some video games, anyone know where I can find some of this free healthcare?

State Medicaid. Just make sure you keep your wage under the limits.

Don't do this... But that's what he means.

Sell drugs or have a hustle on the side and get more money. /S

It's the same game from the street to the big businesses. Big businesses and rich people just make charities and get offshore bank accounts to rape our economy.

Looking forward to the federal thc hemp ban. Then I can grow weed for huge profit margins, quit my real job, and actually sit around and play video games without giving anything back to society all day like he's accusing us all of doing. Wish they'd make alcohol illegal too. We have enough dipshits in congress for this to happen after they do all this horrible stuff and then get angry when non of it accomplishes what they think it will accomplish. Moonshine is even easier to mass produce than weed and like 4000% easier to get away with.
