  1. Firstly, Good does not exist in nature. A Good person is only one led astray by an Evil in an enchanting mask or the Evil who wears that mask. Politics uses Good as a means of control for those too weak to accept the reality of the world or a vast illusion meant to hide an injured evil. Don’t be a fool!

  2. i worked for a company in oregon in the 1990's/2000 that cared for the mentally disabled. their policy was if you failed a drug test you were fired. thc can be detected 2 weeks to 1 month after smoking. cocaine and heroin 24 hrs. i told my supeevisor that I had $10,000 in the bank to fight them in court, rhey never tested me. years later oregon kegalized marihuana.

  3. Why are things so complicated in America? Canada legalized marijuana in 2018 with restrictions similar to alcohol and tobacco. We can have up to 30 grams of legally produced weed and up to 4 plants per household for our personal use! The downside to buying legal weed is tgat we get taxed on it! However, I think the taxes are used for mental health programs and that's a good thing! Your feds need to get it together and really do the research!!

  4. Why is extreme positivity dangerous?
    Positivity is usually a state of denial for people in recovery from drugs, crime, illness, or who didn't study. A real rational perspective is balanced and dies not stray to extremes of positivity or negativity. The truth leads one to reality, which becomes plain over time, not into a fantasy wonderland. Positivity is often used in formal presentations to sell a product or an idea because it greases the potential for buying power. This becomes misleading over time as one views presentation after presentation, and people forget the world is harsh and dangerous. Then, they lose their sense of rational balance and become a part of the danger themselves. Extreme positivity leads to a negativity imbalance, and then one develops manic depressive episodes.

  5. I would really love for him to do a segment on the politics of why tobacco and alcohol are so accepted, as they are proven killers, as opposed to marijuana which is entirely not. Just lay out the craziness of it for us.

  6. Don't think there's any change on the Federal level yet. Six years later.
    " On the federal level, cannabis remains illegal. The federal government classifies cannabis, along with heroin and cocaine, as a Schedule I drug with a high potential for abuse and little to no medical benefit."
