Spring is Bringing Rain, Floods and CBD Oil

I don’t think it’s a secret a good number of Americans have pushed for the legalization of marijuana for quite some time.

During my college (state university) days, one could sit in the student union working on homework and detecting the smell of pot wafting through the student union. That was many many days ago. Yet in spite of what appeared to be at the time a desire by the American people to use pot, there continued to be draconian laws penalizing anyone caught smoking or possessing marijuana.

Many lives have been ruined by the enforcement of these laws.

States are now legalizing (mostly via referendum) the usage of pot. Some of the laws only allow for some sort of medical use and others are making recreational use legal. States are moving in this direction, even though the federal government continues to be against any law liberalizing pot usage. 

I have often thought how could a government of the people on the federal level get it so wrong. The government and its various agencies continue to harass the very people who put it in power. State governments see the handwriting on the wall and are bending to the will of the people.

Now moving on to a product many folks believe is related to marijuana … CBD Oil (a dietary supplement) is taking the country by storm. Americans (young to old) rushing to use CDB oil for all kinds of reasons.

I can’t give you specific cites, but going from memory as the news articles fly by … CBD oil is becoming an ingredient in many products … I see it offered up in jelly beans, alcohol products, etc. The American people want it so badly that they are rushing to purchase products with the oil being a necessary ingredient. Plus, they’re even buying the oil and taking it straight. Imagine that? LOL

Maybe, it’s good for you, then again perhaps it's not. It kind of reminds me of watching old westerns where they feature a medicine man coming into town offering up a product that cures everything. As it stands now, the CBD medicine man acts a lot in the same way.

Be that as it may …

What we are seeing is that the American people want marijuana & CBD Oil so intensely they are running and jumping to the arms of anyone who satisfies this need and desire.

Hey, you government folks who think you are supposed to control our lives and force us to do what you think we should be doing … 

We, the people are doing what we want to do, NOT what you think is best. FREEDOM is something you should read up on.

SO BACK OFF!!!

Human - Sex/Labor Trafficking

Human trafficking is characterized by the use of force, fraud or coercion to lure their victims into some type of labor or commercial sex act. Not all of these above factors may be present in every situation. Human trafficking is a crime which is seldom reported due to language barriers, fear of traffickers and possibly fear of law enforcement itself. Craigslist, to their credit ... removed the "Personals" section within their online service in March of 2018 due to Federal legislative decree stiffening penalties associated with sex trafficking. It was the right move legally, ethically and morally. Sex trafficking is a subset of the larger issue known as "Human Trafficking." It is not an unreasonable stretch of logic to equate sex trafficking with the trafficking of labor, e.g. illegals being brought into the U.S. for the purpose of working in American businesses. A good number of American businesses are INDEED guilty of said labor trafficking. No place is ...

the NFL & Money (No right or wrong)

Here is my take ... It has been reported that Athletes participating in the league will most likely be susceptible to suffering from CTE and other lingering injuries playing the game. Do note, that many parents are becoming less likely to encourage their children (unless it is the only way out of their socioeconomic status) to play football because of those injuries. The NFL is not expected to stop playing the game because of this harm. Could it be they fear the loss of money and status? Recently, the NFL was shocked by the trend associated with “Colin Kaepernick”  protesting American political and social issues by refusing to honor the playing of the “Star Spangled Banner.” Once again, money was and is the issue here. We have no idea of what the owners of the NFL are thinking because whatever they decided to do was to make sure fans continued to watch and attend football games. Revenue from ticket sales and television viewing is a pretty big deal. Recent relocations of sever...

Trudeau, G7 (or G6 +1) and Trump

I am not altogether displeased with the way President Trump handled himself during this weekend's Economic Summit in Quebec, Canada. And on top of all that, I am impressed with the ongoing Twitter dialogue (if that is what one would call it) with the Canadian Prime Minister, Trudeau. Due to the way in which the opposition here in the United States treats the President, it's not too much of a surprise that the rest of the world thinks they can do the same. The members of the G7 are also politicians playing to their home crowd and they shouldn't expect the US to be any different in protecting the best interests of our country. President Trump  being the street fighter (from, New York) that he is certainly never misses the opportunity to respond in kind. As to tariffs .... it would seem each country has their own set of tariffs to protect their industries. Screaming out loud in economic pain over our need to do the same is disingenuous at best. I am intrigued by the po...
