59. Grievances

People can nurture grievances here about issues or people and on and on, or do things to change the existing circumstances. I've decided not to waste my time with anger. It's something I've been learning about privately, as well. ymmv.

I think it's a BIG FUCKING DEAL that the president of the U.S. admitted that marijuana is less harmful than alcohol (whatever the exact wording, that's the reality.) He is communicating a different message to the American public and to the various bureaucracies that deal with these things - and to Congress, as well.

Agencies in the U.S. government have their fiefdoms and those in govt. have their processes to deal with changes in policy. It's not going to happen by fiat of the president. That sort of politics isn't how our nation does things.

jmo.
