Why Soros wants us all high

Fantastic article from Ann Coulter here.

In summary

The article criticizes George Soros for supporting marijuana legalization, portraying it as a calculated move to degrade American society.

  • Criticism of Soros: Coulter accuses Soros of promoting policies like marijuana legalization, open borders, and lenient crime policies to intentionally harm American society. Legalization is seen as the final blow to turn citizens into unproductive, low-IQ individuals.
  • Effects of Marijuana: The article highlights the potential negative impacts of marijuana, especially the modern, high-potency versions:
    • Health Issues: Mention of “scromiting” (screaming and vomiting), increased hospital visits, and mental health issues like psychosis, depression, and suicide ideation.
    • Cognitive Decline: Cites the Dunedin Study, which suggests regular marijuana use can lead to significant IQ loss, especially when started young.
  • Economic and Social Costs:
    • Crime: References an increase in crime rates, particularly in Colorado, including marijuana-related DUIs among young drivers.
    • Financial: Argues that the cost of dealing with marijuana-related issues such as hospital visits, car crashes, domestic violence etc, far exceeds tax revenue from legalization.
  • Corporate Greed: Coulter accuses big corporations of pushing for legalization to profit massively, at the expense of public health and societal well-being.
  • Political Influence: Points out how significant financial backing from entities like Soros influences political campaigns, using Newt Gingrich’s (shouldn’t he be one of the good guys) support for a crime-reducing initiative as an example.
  • Misrepresentation: Criticizes the narrative that marijuana is harmless or beneficial, especially for conditions like PTSD, countering with studies showing increased suicide risks among users.
