Because the DOJ has nothing else better to do I guess.

The “War on Drugs” is an essential component of our politicians “War on the Constitution”.

In 50 years, our society will look back on this and laugh, similar to the Probibition Era

Obama should have legalized it instead of destroying healthcare

Yes but he was too much of a pu$$y about it just like Trump is now.

I’m sure something similar was said in the 60’s.

Trump is busy getting the economy back on track, he’s been in office less than a year. Oh look another record high today in the stock market

It's DOJ's job to enforce our country's laws. If people don't like the laws, then have your lawmakers change them.

Ya'll should be happy about this, this move should force congress to do something to take it out of the hands of the DOJ and ever changing administrations. There are 29/30 states with some form of legal MJ so I'm sure there members of congress will start feeling some heat.

It's BS that the AG is given the power to decide what laws they will and will not enforce.

I don't see the end game here. Put 100,000s out of a job? Trying to fill prisons even further past capacity? Surely they aren't going to try prohibition again in these states.

Some of you can't see the forest for the trees.

This is the worst authoritarian admin ever. Just like DACA, Forcing Congress to make decisions on behalf of the people instead of the Executive.

I know. God forbid congress has to get off their asses and take a stand.

Congress made the law, so Congress must change it. That's how our system works.

...but of course, the stock market isn't the economy. Only about 55% of Americans own stocks in some form.

So? Is it a bad thing that 1/2 the population is making money?

Muh laws!

You can't enforce every law. Every person in government and every citizen has the choice to nullify. This is part of checks and balances.

Plus Trump isnt wasting billions on that global warming farce

Actually, it's more complex than that. The executive branch carries out the law and can choose not to. This has famously been the case since Andrew Jackson told the supreme court to **** off.

this is clearly the case of the legislators trying to pass the buck.

the pot has dried their eyes out. they would be crying if they could.

 

[n_huffhines]

So how long until congress votes on this? Over/under 4 years?

 

[n_huffhines]

Congress is full of worthless pieces of ****. Everybody knows this. Why do you expect this to be a good outcome?

Now the market is much more unpredictable, disorganized, and it's confusing. This will scare away legal growers, which strengthens the black market.

Clock's ticking congress and hog and lv are sure you're going to save the day.
