The president can order agencies to reschedule it, which makes it defacto legal in a lot of states, and means federal employees in states where it's legal can use, including military.

She should do that asap, because the fight to actually legalize is a lot harder.

I don't want to see her say it needs to be legalized and then refuse to take any step thats not the hardest

Canadian here.

It’s been fully legal for… 5 years? We haven’t fallen apart yet!

There’s some people working on that, but they aren’t the stoner type.

Last year Michigan received about 290 million in weed taxes, around 90 went to municipalities and county governments, 100 million to schools, and 100 million to roads.

I'll believe it when it happens. I can only get my hopes up so many times

Biden promised the same thing and then didn’t do shit. They clearly like to dangle this carrot without acting on it so they can continue to leverage it for votes.

I would like to reiterate that A LOT of the entrenched Cannabis industry assholes that run the business are pro-Trump. I'm talking well over a majority of the most psychotic Trump supporters I know are directly involved in the interstate Cannabis market. They are even more prone to conspiracy brainrot than the average Yall'Qaeda folks.

I'm sounding the alarm for the millionth time that the Cannabis industry attracts some of the most degenerate, unethical, fucked up people into positions of power. I've said this like 10 times on Lemmy at least, and I always get downvoted into oblivion even though I have more direct experience with the Cannabis industry than 99.9999% of people on earth.

Trust me when I say a lot of these people are fully fucked in the head, and giving them legitimacy is a problem. While I am still 100% pro-legalization, I am also aware of the dark side of that equation as well. There is a lot of exploitation and evil in the industry. It needs to be unionized, and there needs to be common sense regulation that is not captured by the corporations within the industry itself.

Harris is from Oakland. She gets it. There are nice dispensaries everywhere in Oakland. Even in very family-friendly or affluent parts of town.

Believe it when I see it.

Ok. What's her plan?

god i wish we would do the same across europe

If no one is being harmed and all parties have the access to information to know enough about whether or not to consent, and if all parties do consent.

Nothing wrong is being done.

Trump told the crowd, "One rough hour, and I mean real rough, the word will get out, and it will end immediately. End immediately. You know, it'll end immediately."

You see, we shoot them in the head to send a message. /s

I sure hope so. The notion that there still are not free states when it comes to cannabis is just beyond ridiculous.

Shit. I love that she came out for it but this means the race is closer than we thought. Fuxing vote people!
