The republican party establishment commanded republican reps. to oppose it in order to perpetuate the false narrative that the republican party wholly opposes people smoking weed, and the democrat party wants to let people smoke weed.
It's a big issue for millions of pot smokers who will always vote for whoever they think will de-criminalize (who wants to be criminal?) weed. It's a uni-party control trick. The old "good cop/bad cop" routine. This is simply the (bad cop) republican party establishment assisting the (good cop) democrats so that together, the uniparty establishment can push through bullshit, unconstitutional, oppressive, anti-American legislation, and always have someone else to point the finger at to blame. Establishment control on display, complete with smoke and mirrors.
This bill sucks though. It is only going to be a boon for mid to large sized companies. There is NO way they're going to let your average Joe open a small store and sell their own stuff ... The cost for permits will prevent that.
The only legal stuff out there will be from companies aligned with mid to big pharma. You really think that's a good idea?
They're doing the same shit state governments did with gambling. It's still illegal everywhere in said states EXCEPT at government sanctioned gambling places (with the exception of Nevada of course). You can't buy a few slot machines and operate them at your bar ... That's dangerous according to government. It's only dangerous to the scumbag piece of shit getting kickbacks from government gambling centers. Only the government can own monopolies you know ...
The tax would be upon cannabis sales, correct? Cannabis should never have been outlawed, it was criminal to do so. It never was prohibited constitutionally. It was prohibited to protect big pharma, Hearst papermill industry, DuPont. Why does "man" think he can outlaw "God?" Glad Matt Gaetz co-sponsored the bill. Now, the devil is in the details as always, and that seems to be why most people vote one way or the other, but ultimately, a vote to keep putting people in boxes over a plant funds the prison-industrial complex, destroys communities as parents are locked up for victimless crimes. I applaud it's passage. Legalization, NO, decriminalization, YES.
I was saying how ludicrous it is to be required to have a license to fish or hunt and how they have no right to keep anyone off of "federal" lands. They made that shit up
That why there all of these national and state parks...your use of the planet Earth is dictated by them.
Teddy either did it on purpose or didn't foresee the govt abuses that have ensued.
Hell, you can't collect ginseng in VA on federal lands...they WILL send you to prison! I've seen it happen.
When I trout fish I have 1/3 of a ruler, 10-15 ft of line wrapped around it, a hook and a sinker.
Toss it in where it looks good.
Not paying to hike my ass off,
risk a mosquito bite and possibly break a sweat, catch, clean and eat 1 or 2 fish at a time.
I agree. God gave us everything on the earth that we would need. Including cannibas. And you're right, Dupont screwed it into oblivion, and it's been demonized ever since. There soooo many health benefits from it and derivative products. As well as practical uses for hemp (rope, clothes, and yes even concrete!) And they're cheaper and better for you than the poison big pharma peddles to the masses. Recreational use should be treated like recreational alcohol use. Do it in your home on your own time. Most things in moderation can be good, and there's always gonna be stupid people using any product. When individual states legalize it, all the stupid pot heads flock to that state and make cannibas look bad. Full support of legalizing pot, but not with the gubment fine text attached.... Fuck the gubment
Do you have a take on this story?
