Still seeking a discussion on SSDP so that a more informed decision could be made, for there's obvious pros and cons in funding them.
I may or may not feeling that they shouldn't be considered because of their stance on drugs, hence not wanting to influence an outcome based solely on this issue.
They don't seem to be formally registered as a non-profit, but that fact alone is not necessarily a stickler.
They do have a wide audience base.
~100 of its members/readership attend higher education institutes, e.g. Harvard, Yale, Cal Tech (is that one word or two?), etc.
Please weigh in, whether you're a Bitcoin 100 member or not, with at the very least penning a pro or con sans the reasoning, for we're all in this Bitcoin thingie together.
By proxy, the following two bitcoiners have weighed in:
Dank: Yes!
Brother John: Hell, no!
EDIT: Acknowledging Rassah's post above this one.
I have no problem with funding these guys. Not from any particular pro/anti drug agenda, but because we REALLY do need to have a sensible discussion on drug policy in this country. We spend BILLIONS on enforcing criminalization of a problem and very little on treatment for that same problem. Which just exacerbates the situation.
i can't even tell you how many of the homeless I take care of are casualties of our countries draconian drug rules.
And I think that's the point of that law group. Have a sensible conversation.
I can support that. I will always support having an intelligent conversation over following blindly.
