Can’t. It’ll drive up health insurance costs.

Why give them “free” money to do what they’re already doing in their basements?

Sounds like he is already heavily invested in it himself....

Funny how that works, isn't it?

Michigan just voted to legalize pot. But the dirty little secret was that all the money that went into lobbying in favor of it was from outside sources who stand to get much richer.......

Read this closely-—

DeBlasio wants GRANTS to be given to people to start up pot companies.

GRANTS are NOT LOANS....

They are HANDOUTS which don’t have to be repaid.

How much more off base could he be? He is GIVING away money from businesses that EARNED it to businesses that won’t have to pay anything back. AND with NO expertise to run any kind of business.

Watch all your auto insurance go sky high in the states where Pot is legal.

From time-to-time I do some online gaming with a few folks from around America (and Canada).

The ONE thing that really gets several of them all excited is just that. Even a couple of guys who surprised me, who hold what I would consider critical or high-level jobs.

More tax $$ to assist with their dumbing down of society.

No thanks, Wilhelm.

Likely close friends of DeBlobio who will be receiving these grants.
