The Pot Vote
As five states vote on whether to legalize recreational pot, Dr. Jon LaPook visits Pueblo, Colorado, a town that knows firsthand the impact of the legal weed business.
Legalizing Marijuana: Pot Legalization is Revealing Unintended Consequence
By Markian Hawryluk, The Bulletin “When have we ever as a society benefited from a sin tax?” Shemelya, with National Marijuana Initiative asked. “Look at the models for alcohol and tobacco and what they cost every year. They’re not even revenue neutral, and neither will this drug be. It’ll end up costing states more than they’ll ever take in, in tax receipts.”
http://www.bendbulletin.com/health/4718634-151/mainstreaming-marijuana
A thumbs up to Governor Chris Christie for bravely standing up to the pot industry. His words are empowering! Why any tax revenue resulting from selling marijuana is just “blood money:”
Gov. Christie on legalizing marijuana: ‘It’s blood money’
Governor Chris Christie says he will not buy into legalizing recreational marijuana, saying it’s a gateway drug and poison. Townsquare Media New Jersey’s NJ 101.5 presents “Ask the Governor,” an hour long call-in program with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie hosted by Eric Scott starting at 7 p.m. EDT.
How Can America Be So Naive?
Big Tobacco and Big Marijuana employ the SAME tactics! America was once fooled by the tobacco industry living off addiction for PROFIT. The Marijuana Industry is targeting our most precious resources- our teens and young adults. STOP the industry!
Big Tobacco 2.0
Remember Big Tobacco? They are back.
The playbook how to dupe the American public into believing 21st century marijuana (& all its byproducts) are “safe, medicinal & natural” surely is a throwback to years ago when Phillip Morris paid physicians to LIE about the so-called “harmless” use of cigarettes.

Dr. Lev is the Medical Director of Emergency Medicine at Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego. She describes how everyday she treats daily marijuana poisoning: from cyclical vomiting syndrome- a condition resulting in terrible wretching (vomiting) and severe abdominal pain caused by regular marijuana use, she treats someone in acute psychosis and agitation associated with marijuana use. Dr Lev has treated cancer patients who ate a marijuana brownie thinking it would help with nausea from chemotherapy, only to land an admission to the hospital for chest pain and palpitations; and the most reprehensible consequence from marijuana is when Dr Lev has to place a child on life support for marijuana ingestion.

Transcription: Psychosis and Drug Links
Drug use is a key component to the onset of psychosis in teenagers. Most teenagers don’t recognize this fact. It isn’t possible to actually determine the precise amount of risk that the use of marijuana or other hallucinogenic substances have. If you think about it, these substances are designed to make you hallucinate. In many people who do them for recreational or because of peer pressure, the have a transient experience, and then return to normal reality. I take care of young people that have psychotic illnesses, and some people feel that if they use these substances, their capacity to discern reality, stops. They continue to have hallucinations that they can’t get rid of. I would really ask people to consider delaying the use of substances as long as they can. As your brain matures, it seems less vulnerable to this particular risk that marijuana and other hallucinogens give, to some small, but real percentage, of teenagers.

She discusses the decreased perception of pot as a risk amongst high school and young adults but the data of concern is million of young people are using not just weekly but daily as it’s becoming now the norm. Dr Bonafice says her population she treats people with psychiatric disorders (anxiety, mood disorders) even a little bit of marijuana throws them a relapse. Dr Bonafice states marijuana is a psychoactive drug and the THC property induces psychosis more.
