Stealing ideas based on solid unpaid analysis is just theft, but apparently such intellectual dishonesty is OK for a ‘just’ cause!

Drug Amendment Bill a step towards evidence-based regime
The Greens are welcoming the passing today of the Misuse of Drugs (Amendment) No. 3 Bill.
“We are happy this Bill has passed because we agree with its overall intent and are pleased to see that two Green proposals have now been enacted,” said the Green Party’s Drug Issues Spokesperson Nandor Tanczos.
“We were the first to advocate the introduction of a ‘Schedule D’, a fourth rung in the Misuse of Drugs Act ladder that offers the option of restricting, rather than banning, some psycho-active substances.
“The second is the targeting of precursors to methamphetamine, which last year we called on the Government to focus on controlling.”
“This Bill is a useful step towards a properly graduated and more realistic, evidence-based drug regime, and while we have had some concerns about the details and processes, overall we commend Mr Anderton for its passage,” said Nandor.
[You have received this message because we think we deserve our superannuation for life and are desperate for votes at the margins so we are taking all the credit in this policy area.
If you would like to keep receiving lies about Drug Policy and/or Justice, please apply to the Green Party, attn. Nandor Tanczos. ]
Can a bit of restorative justice fix this - we will just have to watch and see! PS. methamphetamine prevalence is a product of poor drug policy and pandering to a failed system based on moral judgments and sending messages. MDA#3 is just tatting on the quilt of dysfunction.
