Way to go Texas. Democratic Parties across the nation might need to enact similar positions to get pot legalization measures on ballots across the nation. Such actions might just get a massive amount of pot smoking dead heads out to vote. I would think that most of them would vote for progressive agendas. Just imagine if there were proposition on each of the state's ballots to tighten controls and raise taxes on beer and criminalize beer drinkers? Right Wing Rednecks would turn out in mass to vote the measures down and cast a lot of votes for Tea Party Candidates at the same time.
Hope sooner than later Billions are wasted on putting folks in jail who possess small amounts of weed. The War on drugs is a monumental failure ! I have never smoked weed Inhaled or not
This is why the world is not working a few self interest groups call the shots on the interests of the many or the highest good of all.
You cannot legislate morality .we should have as few laws which are limits as possible our society reflects where the power is not where it wishes to be .The cannabis story has nothing to do with smoking weed its all about economics and vested interest .
This is a question of GREED replacing the common interests of humanity
Wake up world -do you have any idea what this miraculous plant can do ,nature know,s best work with nature do not destroy her ,do you have any idea how many trees it takes to supply the world with paper ,HEMP could supply the world with all the paper you could ever need without cutting down ONE TREE.,AND WHAT ABOUT ALL THE REST OF THE STUFF WE USE PAPER FOR?
Hemp has so many wonderful uses there is a huge lobby working against it ,this is just one example of greed over the common good.
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
—Peter Coyote, Actor and author of Sleeping Where I Fall
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom is a national treasure. Read him, embrace him, learn from him, and follow him as we all work for social change."
—Robert Greenwald, political activist and founder and president of Brave New Films
From Screwed:
"If we are going to live in a Democracy, we need to have a healthy middle class. Thom Hartmann shows us how the ‘cons’ have wronged this country, and tells us what needs to be done to reclaim what it is to be American."
