“Following listening sessions in all 67 counties, Lt. Gov. John Fetterman and Gov. Wolf released the final report and proposed next steps on legalization of marijuana in late September. The listening tour prompted counties to create a task force to explore the issue as well, with their recommendations released on early October.
“The Lt. Gov’s report, which summarized more than 44,000 comments from the tour and online submissions, indicated a majority of attendees in all but a few counties supported legalization of recreational marijuana. A county-by-county breakdown of support and opposition is available, as well as the most common arguments for and against legalization.” – SOURCE: County Commissioners Association of Pennsylvania newsletter
Why legalize marijuana–oh, excuse me, Cannabis–?
Money.
Tax Revenue.
This is will be a tightly controlled, monopolistic, crony capitalist feeding frenzy.
In Maryland, “the industry” is controlled on levels—cultivation, processing, distribution and retail—by only a few companies.
(I’m sure the utopian wonderland of Colorado is the same.)
Guess what that means?
Quantity Over Quality.
Whatever organic/medicinal elements that are present will be extracted to create a Product.
But, hey, it’s just another way to keep The Masses appeased and distracted.
(Also, one can see the burgeoning Hemp business is pretty much the same Insider Only feeding frenzy)
Correction…
I did not mean Maryland, I wanted to refer to Rhode Island with it’s “vertical business” arrangement.

CBD, or cannabidiol, is a chemical compound found within the cannabis plant. It is a clearly going on substance used to make CBD oil. Unlike THC, additionally found inside the hashish plant, CBD isn’t always psychoactive. CBD oil is used to treat a selection of scientific signs and symptoms. It relieves pain, reduces tension and depression, enables with neurological illnesses like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, and alleviates most cancers-related signs. While there may be no clinical records to support it, there is anecdotal evidence that CBD oil can even be used to treat health problems of our dog companions – puppies.
I give my dog CBD oil to combat his anxiety with the car and also prevent car sickness. It does help. I did a lot of research before buying and made sure to use a reputable company with products specifically made for dogs.
