    rescheduling just overregulates the cannabis industry out of business with unneeded legislation while lacking legislation that is needed and allows shoddy products and big megacorp products to be the only ones available

    see nicotine vaping for what that looks like

    Obama, Trump, and Biden have all supported the mess we are in now with banning everything instead of properly regulating products

    but at least the kids are safe

      I don’t think you understand drug scheduling. Cannabis is currently Schedule I, same as heroin, LSD, and ecstasy. The proposal is to change it to Schedule III, along side Tylenol with codeine, ketamine, anabolic steroids, and testosterone.

      This change would reduce the Federal income tax on the industry to 21%, just like every other industry. It’s extremely beneficial to them, and not just some unneeded legislation.
