    “A nation was founded on farming” good way to say slavery smh

    Shame on TED, this is a disingenuous title. Should be called "why mainstream health care should allow cannabis treatment to help fight mental illness". Which don’t get me wrong, I 100% agree, but this video barely hits on tiny slivers, and only on the paperwork side (this guy is an IT company, not a cannabis business owner) but glosses over MASSIVE amounts of what is actually required to start a cannabusiness. Thumbs down for the click bait title.

    This is why Mexico will crush the US MARIJUANA industry. In Mexico there is none of what he mentioned. Insurance? No. Unemployment insurance? No. EPA? Make me laugh. There is no personal income tax in Mexico. There are no excise taxes. Property taxes are 1/10th cost.

    Methamphetamine is a Schedule II drug, not a Schedule I drug. Meth has medicinal purposes compared to Cannabis… *rolling eyes*



  20. Mitchell Sand on June 4, 2022 at 8:08 am

  33. Ed` Bland on June 4, 2022 at 8:18 am

    Growing HEMP will restore the ‘soil’, will restore the ‘atmosphere’.
    Will create BIO-DEGRADABLE plastics.
    RESTORE EARTH
    This is the only way I can get this message out; HEMP plastics is the future for earth.
    LET IT BE KNOWN;
    I wrecked my Harley not wearing my helmet that stopped my heart 3 times, put me into an 87 day coma waking with a 5.5 brain injury requiring relearning life. Once returning home I tried having my doctor do an MRI of my brain to compare to my wreck. He refused telling me that BIG PHARMA will financially destroy any doctor that proves THC restores brain injuries.
    This upset me so much that I taught myself MOLECULAR SCIENCE and went to the gold shop in KALISPELL MONTANA showing JB how copper transitioned into gold. This got me kicked out and he told ‘city council’ that I am making FOOLS GOLD from copper pass tests
    Boiling water proves that ‘heat’ excites MOLECULES allowing ATOMS to escape.
    This is how copper transitions into GOLD and nickel into PLATINUM.
    Earth must be restored by growing HEMP world wide.
    ENDOCANNABINOID SYSTEM

  42. Cody Stiltner on June 4, 2022 at 8:29 am

    Employers do not test for CBD.



  43. Brotherjoe Carden on June 4, 2022 at 8:29 am

    With testing low levels of thc should be acceptable as it is one of the most beneficial cannabinoids for inflammation and chronic pain. I understand that it has psychoactive properties but it can also have strong healing properties including angiogenesis for tumors. I think a more indepth testing system that is specified to the individual’s characteristics would be a positive idea.



  44. ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ on June 4, 2022 at 8:31 am
