Long term continuous use is harmful .my wife has had ulcers from it and burns in her intestines from it

Yes I know. Same thing happened to me at age 18. Irresponsible use of anything is bad, but low dosage at old age is not harmful if you pay attention to your body.......gotta be better for you than these expensive voodoo blood thinners out there now.

The thing with free anything is a system gets clogged up because there is so many people. you can be waiting years for something.

Those prices were for the private pay ones. Expats don't get things for free. They have to pay. In the USA cash customers have to pay twice as much as the rest of the world does.

 

[Michael74]

Its not going to drop the price much...

I disagree. Free market capitalism brings good quality at affordable prices.

Yet you want govt healthcare,you want unregulated mj?

By what standard or not shoukd it established the user of mj cabt drive and Shi should determine the quality ,should ppt havr fentynyl in it?we have frée market food yet we have health standards .

Pharmaceutical companies are hard drug dealers. The only difference from them and regular drug dealers is they are allowed to do it.

 

[jasonc]

There are legit reasons for regulation of drugs ,I'm sure tainted marijuana with arsenic is safe or fetnyl ,other things .

Big money does drive push for legalization of that

If tobacco tax is supposed to discourage smoking is income tax supposed to discourage working?.

 

[jasonc]

If tobacco tax is supposed to discourage smoking is income tax supposed to discourage working?.

those are called sin tax, its too pay for the health care of the person who smokes, so they say, but like any tax it seldom, if it all goes to the problem,

But the reason they established the tax was to discourage people, to hit them where it hurts in the pocket is what the old PM said.

And its not like a smoker is on the top of the list for healthcare if it's suppose to pay for healthcare. That's a bit of a joke. The amount of healthcare due to people not looking after themselves is just as much as smokers. Why do smokers get picked on. And not everyone gets sick from smoking. Probably get something else before a smoking illness. Non smokers are consistently getting cancer all the time.

What % of all the people who are sick or have a illness now smoke?. I would guess a small minority.

the tiny percentage of vetarans who smoke cost the feds several billion dollars in healthcare. plenty of poor do smoke. while I don't think that is working to stop them it does cost the state to treat them, per medicare they cant deny care to them. cancer is expensive.

 

[King Dan of Great the 1st]

It will fail just like the war on everything else. It's a complete joke.

Governments are amazing, all they focus on is something they can ban or raise taxes. Why not un-ban something for once. It's just rules after rules after rules, I can't keep up.

Has any man made system actually worked.

 

[King Dan of Great the 1st]

That's a lot of emissions. I actually had a dream of a volcano last night. I was in a house with a few people on a mountain and lava started coming slow down the hill towards the house, so I jumped in a car and gapped it down the freeway. Lol.

This would be a few million tonnes of CO2. Tax the volcano. Greta is probably having a cry.

We just saved tonnes of CO2 emissions going into the atmosphere and then this volcano farts and ruins it.
