| Buzzby was saying the same thing as I've been saying, just in a different context. He believes in funding these ineffective groups. I don't. But we both agree that they will never fully accomplish a goal. Sorry for walking over this guys announcment, didn't mean too.

| Where, exactly, did buzzby say that they were ineffective? In fact, everything I've read by him is exactly opposed to that.

| He said, and you have also, that these groups will never be out of a job, because there is always a need for them. Sounds to me like, they will never accomplish the goal, and so are ineffective. Means the same thing, just different way of saying it. Thank You, and have a good day. |

| Their goal is legalization of Marijuana. That can happen. However, once that happens there will continue to be a need for groups like this to defend that. Your statements have become increasingly illogical and self contradicting. |

An organization actively working to accomplish something is not "ineffective" just because it hasn't put itself out of a job. That's like saying that a snowplowing firm is ineffective because it's going to snow again or that a restaurant is ineffective because the customers will be hungry again or that parenting is ineffective because the children are not yet adults.
