GOVERNMENT RESOURCES WASTED

The extent of Chinese spying and theft of top-secret technology as detailed
in the report from Rep. Christopher Cox (R-Calif.) is truly shocking.

Perhaps if our government wasn't engaged in a drug war against its own
people for the last 20-plus years, locking up tens of thousands of
non-violent drug offenders, destroying families, persecuting medical
marijuana users and committing similar atrocities, it might have had the
resources to stop the theft of our most important military secrets.

It is obvious that the true threats to our national security come from our
own government officials and abroad, not from our own people.
