My remark was about how idiotic the federal govt looks now on this issue. They're parodies of themselves. Every complaint about bureaucracy is evident in the monumental pile of money that goes into supporting the war on cannabis. Cannabis is the money maker for these bureaucracies because the majority of arrests in the "war on drugs" is for SIMPLE POSSESSION.

This is a war on the American people, now.

This is a war to keep bureaucratic positions and salaries justifiable now.

Right now we have a situation in which a couple of bureaucracies in the Federal Govt. have declared war on the American people because the DEA refuses to admit they have been lying for so long.

That's why I say it's like a clown car. Sadly, the administration is on board, it seems. They were during the last administration.

The problem is the federal govt's intractable stance.

That's why I say people will just continue to ignore them and do the work at the state level. Maybe we'll have a civil war over pot. LOL. (really, really just joking) Federal law enforcement fighting against the American people and their state-level law enforcement.

That's what's happening now, actually. The Federal govt has declared war on the American people and no one with the power to do so will stop this.
