This video is about getting a degree in growing Medical Marijuana. Quick note, it’s going to play right when you click on it, something I despise because I never expect it then question where that noise is coming from.
anyway, you can get an actual college degree in growing MJ. Man did I pick the wrong major. In Michigan students go to Cannabis college, many have graduated already, and are now legally able to grow and sell marijuana. The problem with this is, although it is legal to grow, smoke and sell, it’s illegal to obtain the seeds to grow. Which makes no sense. you got to “break the law to follow the law” like the founder said, only points out the stupidity (I wanted to use a better word) of the government. an issue that needs to be resolved.
quick note, I’m not capitalixing my a’s because I spilled soup on my laptop two years ago so I have to copy and paste the letter whenever I need to use it. The letter under it is also not working that’s why I used an X in cap..
Everyone’s got in their mind that legalizing MJ will help the economy recover. Which, sure I don’t see why not, but why is the government still adding confusion to the subject? Over 50% of america smokes MJ and I would assume more than 50% are ok with it. There is an episode of family guy that explain why MJ is illegal today, when it obviously shouldn’t be according to the constitution. More or less it’s the governement trying to run our lives, deciding what’s best for us instead of leaving it up to the individual, what decisions they should make.
The point of this article/video is to bring more attention to the failing economy and a short term solution for it’s recovery and how confusing the government is making it. Just legalixe it already. The arguement of how it’s a gateway drug is null because in countries like amsterdam where it’s full blown legal, use of other drugs, hardcore drugs like heroin have gone down, and by this point I think we can all agree that reefer madness does not actually exist. Further the example of how the media influences the minds of the masses.
I have a dream that one day MJ will be smoked anywhere and everywhere, by anyone regardless of illness or skin color. I have a dream that one day will learn to relax and let people make their own decisions about their life, except when it involves the endangerment of other. This day will come.
