A Republican bill to legalize marijuana at the federal level in the U.S., expected to be unveiled soon, would have a lighter regulatory touch, lower taxes and fewer provisions to help minorities compared to prior legislative efforts, two people who’ve seen the draft legislation said.

Man... you always had the right to consume/grow weed. Even if it's illegal, it's your born rights to grow a plant that help you. I been growing since im 13 and i could care less if it was illegal. I was born free.

You guys need to stop following stupid rules and live free.

It's a corporate move. Corporations will milk the shit out of the cannabis industry. Guess why the people can't have huge grow ops without papers/regulation? Because YOU making money is a NONO. Its THEIRS.

Any insight as to why republicans would be into weed when they're been against it all this time?

Also them being into lower taxes? Fake and gay.

You really asking? It's a billion $ industry . Take 3 months to have crops worth billions x 4 times a year. With 18k watts, you can get 24-40k $ every 3 months which can then be invested in crypto for massive $. Now imagine what THEY make :P

"republicans" havent been against legal weed. evangelical types have. anyone with even a shred of libertarian insight wants legal weed. the issue comes down to the specifics, what age, what tax level, where taxes are allocated to, etc.

Pharma companies have been against recreational and even medicinal marijuana for longer than I've been alive.

Republicans have not, independents have not... Democrats have.

Democrats have recently rebranded themselves as "pro-choice" when it comes to pot. If they fight this bill, you can see the lie.

Three simple reasons:

1.: $$$$$$
2.: smarter to own a popular issue than to keep resisting the inevitable
3.: $$$$$$$$$$$$$

The easier access to hemp will definitely be profitable.

This will be an interesting social experiment. It may cause a lot of individuals to have lower incomes and standard of living.

Or maybe the Woodstock people were right and it will give us all superpowers.
