While I agree with a lot of what you believe the only reason thc is illegal is because the pharmaceutical companies.Thc is actually a stimulate, and if you look at the scientific research, has many medicinal purposes.

And A-hole your my first dislike ever.

Congrats.

Right in theory but bad explanation. THC is a psychoactive compound, it can be an upper or a downer depending on who takes it. Its still illegal because it would pose a threat to pharmaceutical companies, tobacco companies and alcohol companies, all which have washington by the balls with their evil lobbyists. Legal marijuana would leave the door open for commercial hemp, which would pose a threat to many plastics and oil companies, who once again have Washington by the balls with their evil lobbyists.

Every dollar is "taxed" by the federal reserve. As long as that is happening we can never get out of debt. The real national debt is over $200 trillion we need to make huge changes,and stop paying free loaders to sit around and not contribute to society. At the same time we need to bring jobs back to America . The only way that will happen is to tax all imports ALOT. So it is more profitable to buy American. Anyone who thinks Obamney is the answer is a fickin retarrd.

And m-f'er If you knew two chits about anything you would know how big pharma has to bend over backwards to get any drug to market. But instead you want to talk out of your g-d ***. The FDA has way more to do with weed not being legal than any lobiest does.

It has soooo many uses that would cut into big business that it will never be legal.

Really, then how did Merck get their Gardisil vaccine out in 6 months? when all new drugs need to go through at least a 4 year study? Oh thats right because Julie Gerberding, a former employee of Merck was appointed the director of vaccines for the CDC. If the FDA did their job like you suggest, why is it that every year drug companies are sued for giving out drugs that they knew were dangerous? How about you get your head out of your arse and educate yourself so you are not so ignorant.

You do not have to vote for the lesser of 2 evils. There are more than 2 canidates on the card.

1st Big oil has only one concern and that's not being able to find/drill for more oil. In about 20 years they will either have a way to synthesize fules or move on to selling a renewable energy product.

2nd The FDA has royally messed over the pharmasutical industries because there has been a significant push for regulation of drugs. If you were in analytical chemisty (like I am) you would understand this.

3rd I wont dispute that there may be some influcence by the pharmasutical industry to try to hinder the legilization of marijuana.

4th Politics is a mother-f'er. I am not ignorant enough to suggest that a lot of BS doesnt go down. Part of what the FDA does is to judge the need for a drug/remedy and the risk to reward ratio. It's crappy but that's how it is.

5th I have had to sit through way to many quality by design lectures to be lectured...

6th Untill the rest of America realizes that this does not have to be a 2 party system... vote for either Obama or Romney (which ever you feel is less useless)

Have a good night, I didnt mean to be a ****. But its what I do for a living...

That's what I said, but in a different way. You can't pick apart my post. The fda would probably kill you if you had the cure for cancer?

This is a common misconception. We better society by having more of our own money to spend in the economy. Whether it be the people most are jealous of who are "rich". They create jobs with their money. Nobody have money pins and swims in it like scrooge mcduck. The point of having money is to procure luxuries. So they buy planes which have to be built and sold and flown and maintained. They buy yachts which need the same things as the plane. They buy nice cars, which need the same things. They buy homes which need to be built, furnished, and maintained. Money earned does not just sit somewhere. It is constantly re-invested and working to give someone a job. The ONLY time this doesn't happen is when the government seizes their money. We can see this right now. There is too much uncertainty about whether obama will continue to take more of it. (obamacare costs employers a ton, so it made it that much harder to create jobs.) So these job creators are holding off on taking risks right now because the odds are not in their favor. The government is oppressive. These people's income is seized at 38%. I hear a lot of people say "well 38% doesn't matter as much to them as it does us". Ummm yes it does. It's a MUCH larger amount of money. Yeah it matters to them, and that's money that will not go to create a job. That money is stolen from the private sector and put into the public sector, which does not create a product and cannot make money for our country. It does give some people a job, but it does not do the economy good like a private sector job does. (If you believe that wealth is just traded around and a job is a job you're wrong. Wealth is created. It's not a 0 sum game.)So, this bs about "general welfare" of the country is counter intuitive. The people who cannot provide for themselves are the disabled either physically or mentally and the elderly. That's it. Nobody else has a valid excuse.

NEXT: You hear that some rich person pays less taxes than their secretary or someone in the middle class. THAT IS NOT TRUE!! The income tax rates cannot be defeated. So this rich person has earned their money and been taxed on it once. Then they invest this money. If it happens to make money while invested, they are taxed again on this money. Understand that this money has not been spent. It has been lent. So it is now double taxed but at the "capital gains" rate. This is why the democrats are able to lie about this. If the double tax aka capital gains rate is raised, there will be no reason to invest. You will see stock prices drop dramatically and the economy take a huge hit. (This means that companies have lost investors, lost capital, and thus lost value.) You do not want this and you need to know what you're talking about before you enter the voting booth. If you just listen to the mainstream media or a liberal blog you simply are not as informed as you need to be. Understand that earning a return in the stock market is not easy. You can also lose everything you put in. So if you earn some it's hard. It's not a guaranteed earning like a paycheck is. Whatever you earn, a percentage of that is immediately stolen by the government. Stealing more and more of it just makes it that much harder to earn anything.

Sure, the "rich" create the jobs, but it is the consumers who drive demand. Increased demand creates jobs. If you want to talk small business, ok. There are plenty of small businesses that may not be able to hire more people, but there are plenty of big businesses doing just fine and could employ more people right now. Tax breaks won't influence hiring in this cases. An increase in consumer demand will. By the way, yes there is plenty of wealth sitting untouched. This is why year after year, the wealth distribution trends towards the top at the expense of the middle class. When the middle class begins to evaporate, potential customers are lost as well.

Next: This bolded area is absolutely wrong. The investors are not taxed again on this income. Each investment has its own basis. If sold for more than the investor paid, they pay a capital gain tax on the amount they sold for in excess of original basis. So I am not sure why you are accusing people of not knowing what they are talking about. Maybe you have been reading too much into a conservative blog? Either way, it is not stealing. I don't see taxes coming out of my paycheck and immediately think "oh noes, the thiefs got me."
