I started building a position in ACB earlier in the year in the 7s. Once they signed up Peltz I loaded up my full budget - got 7k now in the mid 8s. Long term I think this one will offer up a nice return. Power to the people....

Most forget cigarettes were once advertised as great cure all...Doctors used to endorse brands...Studies are only now being conducted on the adverse affects of pot because its been schedule one...while im sure they will find benefits(how much is hype and advertising is yet to be determined)....but this whole legalization is about money in the government coffers...i also know people that thought CBD and THC would cure their cancer they are dead or resorted going right back to chemo or radiation which really doesn't work either.....pot is just another form of tranquilizer that affects the canabinoid system and dopamine....One doctor said if pot cured cancer stoners would never get it lol

Cantina Tolteca

Cantina Tolteca is one of those manly Mexican watering holes, where you piss up against a tile barroom wall while ordering the next round from a passing barmaid. With a beer and three shots of mescal in your sails, and the jukebox playing La Paloma, a man feels about as free and unselfconscious here as he ever likely to in this world. Which is what men's bars are for to begin with.

As for the real numbers in this miserable drama of national affairs, only the pointy heads care. For most of us, national numbers don't mean much these days. Once the discussion soared off into the tens of trillions, average working folks lost any numerical moorings they might have had, which were never very good to begin with. So the numbers regarding the massive industries based on the War on Drugs simply get lost somewhere out there among the trillions. After all, what's $50 billion a year spent for our narcotics cops?

Well, $50 billion makes just chasing the dopers an industry the same size as the movie business, and slightly bigger than the telecom industry. Furthermore, the narco cop industry is joined at the hip with the American prison industry — the world's largest — a $45 billion enterprise based on drug convictions. Which of course entails the court systems and billions to the syndicate of lawyers, the state's officially recognized commissars of peasant conflicts. Standing in the wings are the rest of the commissariat, such as the drug rehabilitation professionals. With such a fat hog of public funds there for the cutting, it was only natural that the Department of Homeland Security would increasingly focus its 225,000 employees and $42 billion budget on the drug wars. As for the working slob who has never even seen a bag of weed, he gets his chance to contribute to the drug war industry too, through drug testing in the workplace (25 million tests per year at between $25 and $50 each).
