Yeah, but it’s still mostly boomers who are voting. If younger people voted, abortion would also stay legal everywhere. This is across both parties. These dinosaurs have ruined everything that the Greatest Generation handed to them. We are all living in the mess boomers made.
So do the other 30 polls. The only thing that’s been learned from this is in this so called “democracy”, popular opinion has almost no bearing on legislation.
This isn’t new information. Majority of American voices AREN’T heard no matter how much we poll, vote, protest, yell…. the political minority gets their way with us against our will.
Medical Marijuana and Cannabidiol Research Expansion Act passed the house and senate. Now it's sitting on Biden's desk for his signature. Not sure what he's waiting for. He campaigned on this.
The main problem that California has especially shown is that once the governments get a taste of marijuana taxes, they will only increase it over the long run. This in turn keeps the black market thriving which causes the state governments to take up the war on drugs fight to protect their taxes. Cartels will use legalization as a shield to increase illegal grows which become dangers for those who see too much. Truly legal sellers get the end of the rope as they are squeezed by taxes, competitive disadvantage from illegal weed bypassing taxes, and customers hitting them with frivolous lawsuits. In other words, legalization becomes true only in name.
I’m down with it, but why can’t we also make it possible to buy alcohol in grocery stores everywhere? Where I live I have to drive to a liquor store to get a bottle of wine. So archaic. Thanks for letting me “whine.”
The headline writer must have smoked too much cannabis before going to work. A majority is 51%. That many Americans supported legal cannabis at least a decade ago.
My opinion is that they are lookin a cash cow in the eyes an just not milking her for all she is worth. Ron desantis is agsinst rec weed we do have medical weed.
If you read the article (it’s not very long), you would see that the poll in question absolutely distinguishes between medical and recreational marijuana.
So do the old polls
I used to believe in cannabis legalization.
New poll! From 1982....

New polls, old polls, most polls... going back ~20 years...
This one is at 88%
Don’t worry, we live in a democratic society where the opinion of the majority matters. Certainly.
So do the other 30 polls. The only thing that’s been learned from this is in this so called “democracy”, popular opinion has almost no bearing on legislation.
electoral college has entered the chat
This isn’t new information. Majority of American voices AREN’T heard no matter how much we poll, vote, protest, yell…. the political minority gets their way with us against our will.
Yeah no Americans just aren’t voting right. Protesting and polling isn’t it
Medical Marijuana and Cannabidiol Research Expansion Act passed the house and senate. Now it's sitting on Biden's desk for his signature. Not sure what he's waiting for. He campaigned on this.
Biden Will Sign Medical Marijuana Research Bill
Pharma and police/prison money has influence is my guess.
He can’t remember what he had for lunch if it’s not on a teleprompter or repeated in his ear
New poll shows what old polls have always shown…Politicians don’t listen to voters. They listen to lobbyist that fill their pockets…
To bad the rsc doesn't care and probably would call it "tyranny by the majority" or some shit like that
What's RSC in this context?
Yes…yes…how many poles do you need? Of course the majority support legalization.
New poll from 1995.
There is a whole bunch of things that most Americans support that will never get past the amoral bought and paid for politicians who make the laws.
Are there any meaningful things a Texan can do to make their voice heard on this matter? I know we can contact our senators, but… Texas.
Vote for the guy that supports legalization? Oh wait we’ve done that.
Been like that for a while
Politicians don't reprsent us anymore. This is l dumb.
politicians don't (big pharma, and as I learned the alcohol distributors, pay to well)...Texas will be the last state to legalize - it's stupid.
Sorry florida will be last
Stay high and meh, just the way they want you.
...of course they do.
New Poll shows majority of Americans breathe
I don’t believe poles

Groundbreaking news.
Most Progressive policies are supported by the majority:
What is this…a monthly survey?
Joe hasnt kept his promise. He probably forgot where he is. He said the would take it off te fed schdule 1 list

Marijuana is not legal until you can grow it in your back yard and use it as you want.
The federal govt: best I can do is offer a little more research
My opinion is that they are lookin a cash cow in the eyes an just not milking her for all she is worth. Ron desantis is agsinst rec weed we do have medical weed.

Makes you wonder why it’s still federally illegal. $$$ and corruption
There's only one reason it's still illegal federally. We can't get 10 Republican senators to vote for it.
Cool so only a couple million more people need to have their lives fucked up before we legalize it nationally.
They should wait to legalize it for the 2024 election. Just saying.
