Crack Emergencies

It’s not difficult to understand why crack-heads don’t recognize a disaster when it strikes.  They can’t feel anything – good or bad.

After seven hundred souls died in extreme heat that produced a massive Chicago power failure, U.S. President Bill Clinton demanded free air conditioners for the underprivileged.  Yes, they had no electricity and that recurrent problem will never be fixed.

Toronto mayor Rob Ford didn’t know it was an emergency when residents went without power for a week in the freezing cold.  If you live in Toronto, you know that the city will never really recover.

Perhaps in North America, Detroit is furthest down the path to crack oblivion.  Bulldozers are busy flattening city blocks one after another.

I should not be surprised.  Americans worship OJ Simpson, Michael Jackson, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama and Dennis Rodman.  It’s new, but now we Canadians have Justin Trudeau and Rob Ford on the Toker Popularity Team.  Toronto is in a shambles and it’s beginning to look a bit like Detroit.  No turning back … It’s the voters, stupid.
