- Tostino 3y agoThey just can't help them selves with the backronyms can they?! Politicians and the US military must spend a significant proportion of their time coming up with clever names.
- FredPret 3y agoClever names seem like a waste of time but it’s one of the best things you can do if you want an idea to spread
- thiago_fm 3y agoSponsor was Biden? Interesting.
- evanelias 3y agoYes, despite his state (Delaware) not even really having a rave scene. He was widely despised among politically-minded folks in the electronic music scene. Biden sponsored the "RAVE Act" as part of his long-term focus on writing extreme "war on drugs" legislation. He previously also wrote the legislation that created the Federal drug czar position, and he was chairman of the Senate Drug Caucus. When it came to drug laws, he was to the right of Reagan and George HW Bush, criticizing them for not being tough enough on drugs.
