Why Couldnt Jodi Rell Handle The Responsibility Of Signing The Medical Marijuana Bill…?
Majority of connecticut was in support of this bill, and it had even made its way RIGHT into the hands of rell…
Rell from HELL!!!! She would rather have innocent people suffer physically and co-exist with their excruciating and debilitating pain, rather than approve a naturally growing plant for medical use. Why? Because everybody should be afraid of the police. She is a dissapointment to connecticut, and to the whole legalization movement.



I don’t understand why it’s illegal to begin with (ok yeah I do…people in the US are ignorant and believe everything that the government tells them all the while the gov is taking money from lobbyist to keep it illegal)
The illegality of marijuana is based on a lie…and it’s all a sham.

I think the root off this question dates back to the day when the racist cotton field farm owners had the US government favor they’re product over hemp… I don’t remember the details, I just know that hemp is a much better raw material than cotton. I can only speculate… I think it’s the same forces working against a legalization. Just think about what could happen if tobacco was made illegal, and cannabis became the only legal thing to smoke? Somebody would loose alot off money… Imagine if this bill was passed, and your country could no longer fill up their jails with cannabis smokers? It doesn’t scare me, but… It sure scares your politicians for some reason… I just cant find any logic reason why, but my best guess is that Jodi Rell is under the influence off a filthy rich lobby… Maybe the tobacco dudes? Or maybe the incredibly rich trillion dollar medication industry?

I agree, I think she’s afraid of controversy,and it still blows my mind she originally wanted to raise our taxes but then recanted when the Dems wanted to raise the taxes on the upper class saying we didn’t need a tax hike due to the surplus.

there is a presidential candidate that would end the war on drugs. see below:
———————————
There are a total of 3 honest politicians currently running in the 2 main parties.
In democrat you have:
Mike Gravel and Dennis Kucinich
In republican you have:
Ron Paul.
-Kucinich is decent but I think he isn’t assertive enough.
-Paul has an awesome grasp on the reality of what government policies are useless and corrupt but I get the impression that he wants to wipe out the government totally. He is a constitutionalist and wants the federal government to only have say in laws described in the constitution and nothing else.
-Mike Gravel is who I am voting for. He is bluntly honest about everything and is a populist and libertarian at the same time all about giving power to the people.
*he wrote the national initiative for democracy (NID). A bill that will give the voting public the ability to vote directly on laws at the federal level. Look at how useless our national representatives have become. Republicans won’t end the war so we flip democrats into office and once they get there they say oops we changed our minds we also want to drag out the war. http://www.nationalinitiative.us/
*he recently wrote “UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES
WITHDRAWAL FROM IRAQ ACT” which would make it a felony for the president to continue the war in Iraq if he refused to bring home the troops. It would pass quite easily if done in the way he outlines and if after that the president refused to follow the law he would commit a felony and be automatically impeached by his own actions. http://www.gravel2008.us/?q=node/1191 however the other democrats in office choose to ignore this act because they too want to continue the war. They want to draw out the war as a political maneuver to catapult the party into office due to anti-republican sentiment. Look at the “debates” and this is clear. They are trying to direct all the problems of the universe at bush and the republicans in general when they are just as guilty. (Gravel, Paul, & Kucinich are the only ones that would ACTUALLY end the war if elected. the others are full of it)
*HE is the man that ended the draft in Viet Nam.
*he will END the war on drugs. Stop wasting money on an ineffective program ($7.6 billion per year). End the prohibition on marijuana and make the others prescribe-able and treat addiction as a medical problem rather than a criminal problem. The laws do not seem to stop anyone and turn otherwise rational people into criminals. The United States had an estimated 17,500 metric tons of marijuana available in 2001, or 17,500,000 kilos or 17,500,000,000 grams. If we were to place a tax on marijuana, the United States would take in billions every year. For example, a tax of $2 per gram would bring the street price of a 10 gram pack to about $30-$40 depending on the quality. It would also raise $35 billion per year, which could go to help fund public education; just add general revenues to the system, etc.
*he will declassify all government programs designed to hide the truth from us the American public. While in the senate he read the “pentagon papers” into public record thereby revealing much of Richard Nixon’s corruption to the people. Nixon attempted to bring charges against him and it went all the way to the Supreme Court where it was decided that a senator could not be prosecuted for declassifying such records that were essential the integrity of the law. All of the front runners looove secrets.
*eliminate the income tax and the IRS. Instantly eliminate the current 67,204 page tax code, instantly eliminate the $10.2 billion cost to run the IRS, instantly eliminate the $256.1 billion cost in compliance costs currently placed on tax payers, and eliminates the payroll tax. Eliminates increased taxes due to tax evasion, eliminates law breaking due to lack of understanding of the tax code, eliminates wealthy special interests tax exemptions that effectively un-tax anyone that can come up with enough write-offs. Creates new tax revenue from foreign tourists, creates new tax revenue from illegal immigrants who currently pay no taxes. The prebate maintains extra income to families that are registered to receive it, and maintains income to people that are between jobs. See fairtax.org
*place all taxes gained from carbon based fuels into a fund to research carbon free forms of energy.
*end all forms of discrimination in the law regarding LGBT. None of this civil union bullcrap. Civil unions are the modern day version of Jim Crow laws.
*Healthcare in the form of vouchers. People don’t realize that most of our healthcare is already paid by the government in the form of tax write offs your employer gets when they pay for your insurance. Individuals don’t get this option but they do. All of these tax codes are designed to perpetuate the strangling grip insurance has on everyone. Another reason to abolish the IRS and switch to the “Fairfax” people think they need insurance but insurance is the reason no one can afford healthcare. Cutting out insurance will save millions maby more… instead you apply for a voucher to pay for your basic medical needs or serious issues when you have an emergency. Special treatment and cosmetic procedures would be private pay. The others want to just flush more money into insurance companies.
*all of these things combine into an immigration policy far better than any of the current fluff. Illegals cant apply for healthcare vouchers, illegals can no longer avoid paying taxes and cant receive the prebate which puts a strain on them to want to leave but then this might be unnecessary because the Fairfax will make the prices of American produced products much more competitive globally thereby attracting more businesses here and creating a need for more legal workers. He will abolish NAFTA as it exists now to eliminate the way it funnels money into a few corporations and away from workers.
The end, gravel rocks. Gravel + Paul/Kucinich = best possible combination in the white house. All the others are corrupt and liars.
