STILL MORE.
An
opinion article in ctmirror.org by Bishop Robert Middleton (May 31,
2019) tries to make a case for legalizing recreational marijuana.
"Close, but no cigar". There are abundant medical, psychological and
social reasons why this is a bad idea. And legalization would send the
wrong signal, broadly increasing use. It should be kept illegal, with
penalties and sanctions more directed toward identification of persons
at risk, information, mental health care and rehabilitation. Meanwhile,
the availability and controlled use of Medical Marijuana should be
increased. It helps.
"Google Reportedly Under Antitrust Scrutiny
By U.S. Regulators."
(in The Day June 2, 2019). IT'S ABOUT TIME! The Wild West has produced
over 400 billionaires who do not share...and has destroyed the meaning
of personal privacy. And the arrogant Facebook is the worst.
Three articles related to America's economic status and prospects
should be read in tandem:
a) "Economic Expansion Has Been Squandered",
by Paul Choiniere (Editorial, The Day, June 2, 2019).
b) "The GOP's Duty: Explain the Cost Of 'Free'",
by Bobby Jindal (in WSJ May 30, 2019, Opinion, pA17).
c) "Trump - Trade Wars - U.S. Policy"
(in Washington Post June 2, 2019), by Jeanne Whalen et al.).
What
should be clear here is that the U.S. economy has been allowed - and
has been manipulated by forces within and without the country - to
become a Potemkin Village, thanks to the battle cry: "GREED IS GOOD".
President Trump, himself a product of that "system", has determined in
his new role to turn that all around. In this effort, he is being
thwarted at every turn, predictably, by the forces that created that
mess. Thus, he has few tools and weapons at his disposal. Tariffs and
negotiations (with both carrot and stick) are his main and possibly
only mechanisms. He should be given every opportunity by the people to
re-build that Village. Certainly the perpetrators, Democratic and
Republican, in office and in industry, will not be so inclined. Thus,
the importance of the 2020 election.

MORE ABOUT "RECREATIONAL" MARIJUANA USE - AND ABOUT THE SCHLOCK SCIENCE THAT SUPPORTS IT.
Whether
it be regarding this subject, or about Global Warming or about many
other politicized and cash-weaponized subjects, "Science" today "ain't
what it used to be". In fact, it sometimes resembles Mustang Ranch.
See the article by Alex Berenson, the author of a recently published book entitled:
"Tell Your Children: The Truth About Marijuana, Mental Illness And Violence".
The article: "Weeding Out Dubious Marijuana Science" (in WSJ May 6, 2019, Opinion, pA19).
