Communism In The USSR
Number of words: 930 - Number of pages: 4.... things. That made the ordinary man think that the government is controlled by people just like him, with only high school education (some even without it), poor, being in politics for the first time in their lives. That is impossible. Such people can run no government.
The most annoying thing is that almost no one noticed that, and if someone did, they were immediately terminated without any questions.

The Push For Legalizing Marijuana
Number of words: 1652 - Number of pages: 7.... the government.
However, President Richard Nixon declared a war on drugs in 1973 and over the next 20 years, each succeeding president continued to escalate the drug war.

Property damage from bombings rose to $7.5 million, with 308
