Underground Ag

The Guardian has an interesting article on 'agriculture' (of a sort): With pot and porn outstripping corn, America's black economy is flying high. Here's a teaser:

A society that can punish a marijuana offender more severely than a murderer is caught in the grip of a deep psychosis. Black markets will always be with us. But they will recede in importance when the public morality is consistent with our private one. The underground is a good measure of the progress and the health of nations. When much is wrong, much needs to be hidden.
