U.S. Senate Unanimously Approves Marijuana Reform Bill

"Also in Congress, a separate bill to tax and regulate marijuana is also in play this session. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) is sponsoring that legislation, and she said in a recent interview that she’s received assurances from Democratic leaders that her States Reform Act will receive a hearing"
 
These politicians are even more stupid than I thought. Don't they realize that once people get turned on they're never, ever, going to listen to them again ?



Haw, haw, haw, haw..............................haw, haw, haw...........................haw, haw..................................haw.
 
It’s legal in AK.
Too expensive, does next to nothing for me.
Rather have a nice glass of Argentinian Malbec.
 
the power of federalism. "The states are the laboratories of democracy"

this is literally "grass roots" power from the people changing the states to the stated forcing the feds to change

You lose: https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/alcohol/alcohol-fact-sheet

There is a strong scientific consensus that alcohol drinking can cause several types of cancer (1, 2). In its Report on Carcinogens, the National Toxicology Program of the US Department of Health and Human Services lists consumption of alcoholic beverages as a known human carcinogen.

The evidence indicates that the more alcohol a person drinks—particularly the more alcohol a person drinks regularly over time—the higher his or her risk of developing an alcohol-associated cancer. Even those who have no more than one drink per day and binge drinkers (those who consume 4 or more drinks for women and 5 or more drinks for men in one sitting) have a modestly increased risk of some cancers (3–7). Based on data from 2009, an estimated 3.5% of cancer deaths in the United States (about 19,500 deaths) were alcohol related (8).
 
What's going on? Is the government approving a study to improve marijuana?

Certainly a worthwhile project, but aren't there more pressing issues?

"The bill—sponsored by Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Brian Schatz (D-HI) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA)—is titled the Cannabidiol and Marihuana Research Expansion Act. It cleared the full chamber unanimously, without debate."

Of course this may require a Joint Session in Congress!

I dont see anything about taxation.
However the title is misleading,it's not legal reform for usage either

“Current rules and regulations make it hard for researchers to study how marijuana and marijuana-derived medications can best be used to treat various conditions,” Feinstein said in a press release. “This important legislation will cut the red-tape around the research process, helping get FDA-approved, marijuana-derived medications safely to patients.”

Previously, Marijuana was off the table for anything but imprisonment. Now, Marijuana is set for some type of Legalization. Momentum is growing. States*are legalizing it. It's legal in Washington DC.
Word on the street, once New York legalized Marijuana, the Federal Government would remove Marijuana as a Schedule 1 Substance.
Wall Street also is hustling 'MJ' as a mutual fund.

"Schedule I drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. Some examples of Schedule I drugs are: heroin, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), marijuana (cannabis), 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (ecstasy), methaqualone, and peyote."
