It gets better : people are being taxed for a chemical addiction that funds most of east coast politics, and has done so for longer than I've been alive. Meanwhile politicians are ' fighting ' to help people overcome the addiction, while taking the money from the profits via PACs and lobbying.
So people are paying taxes to help run the country on a device that creates a chemical addiction whose profits go to line the pockets of politicians that promote the device in itself in order to survive.
