Marijuana is not a real problem to 'them' - soon it will be legal everywhere - 'They' want people stoned, unthinking, dumb
and happy.
Tobacco is now the big enemy and they are doing everything in their power to outlaw it and turn it into a controlled substance - which in some ways it
already is. And its not your health they are worried about - its your mind - Tobacco
makes people think - To 'them' it's a very dangerous drug
Of course the law is enforced very selectively - If you are rich and can afford your now expensive [because of draconian taxes] habit, there is no
problem. On the other hand a friend of mine who is poor, disabled and has been a smoker for over
50 years was just turned down from a federally subsidized housing project becuase he would not sign a lease that said he
cound not smoke any tobacco product even in his own apartment [notice they didn't mention marijuana] - This is the new
FEDERAL REGULATION that applies to all federally subsidized housing [includes millions of Americans who are giving up their rights by living in
federally regulated properties].
He relies upon federal money to survive but swears he has come to hate the very government that is giving him the money!
And when Donald Trump said he was going to cut federal regulations - he, at least temporarily, became a born again
Republican.
