Follow the money!!! Government wants more, in taxes and "investors" want a BIG return!!! It should be sold in stores like cigarettes. But no way will that happen because pot shops will charge more ( like in low income areas like liquor stores and abortion clinics).
Mr. Boehner was not an advocate of marijuana while in office. His only vote on legalization came in 1999, when he voted to prohibit medical marijuana in Washington. He also opposed “even the mildest of marijuana law reforms”, as he was “unalterably opposed” to legalization But now? What a change! As , Mr. Boehner now say’s; “I’m convinced de-scheduling the drug is needed so we can do research, help our veterans, and reverse the opioid epidemic ravaging our communities." He left one very important one out; “so we can make money”. What a guy, but baby, he is “all in” now, after seeing that profit margin!
9:21 tells you all you need to know…. so after all that bad stuff you said about Trump was his tax reform to add trillions to the deficit a mistake…oh no
I like how John Boehner humanized himself at the end by admitting his tobacco and alcohol use, which are both a thousand times worse than cannabis, I have to give him credit for that among other things that were said. That impressed me.
John Boehner is a globalist. He now works for trade firm that pushes China business interest's. I am a Republican but can't stand Democrats or Republicans that are globalists.
Alot of comments here that kinda don't make sense to me. Yes he may be investing in Cannabis but we need people that actually have a voice and can influence the Prohibition idiot's. But it is funny about a month before Ohio we're Boenher is from has passed i believe even recreational marijuana. But I appreciate him speaking up because we need folks that can get weed legal and I don't care if money is the motive. Money is the reason it was made illegal in 1937. So God bless him for adding his voice. Legalize marijuana now!
Legalize. I know a vet who was doing coke bad, and he recently switched to weed to get off because Coke was dangerous, caused him to wreck, which eventually killed his mother and possibly caused brain damage to his son. I didn't realize he was afraid of going to his VA appointment until he mentioned that he had an appointment and they might find it (the weed). Sad.
Smart strategy. Washington is finally listening to the American people. Kinda ironic to have this conversation with all those numbers In the background.
They will just add something to it guys! I began my career many yrs ago, giving patients narcotics post surgery. This change is only happening because there is cash to be made. These folks are crooks. They will add something to it…it will not be pretty!
He didn't think much about marijuana policy when he was in Congress? Great thing to admit.
If he is telling the truth that he had felt his views on marijuana evolving over the past decade, I'm sure at some point one of his aides would have set him straight. "Sir, no. No, you cannot be pro-weed as leader of the House GOP. No way, no how." lol A true leader would have been open about his evolution, even if that meant taking heat from some of his allies. He may have even had the opportunity to start a legit pro-weed movement within the GOP. Maybe not a big one but at least a seed that could grow. That's the kind of thing a true leader does–the right thing, even when it's not politically expedient. If he was sitting at the top of the House GOP with pro-weed views for the last several years, then that is yet another sign of his super weak leadership.
CBD hemp flower(regular weed with no thc) works for my anxiety and depression.Before I used it, it was extremely hard for me to hold a job and be productive.After three months on CBD my anxiety barley brothers me anymore and my depression is not as intense like it used to be.The stuff works for a lot of people, with or without thc.
The so called "entitlements" are paid for by the people. Social security was never to be part of the budget. It is self funded by the people paying into it. It was never to be a tax going to the general fund. It has been repeatedly raided and never reimbursed for money taken out. It is robbing the people who paid into it. I would have been better off putting the money I have paid in for 52 years under my mattress. You can print money to fund constant war, but you can't uphold your promises to the people.
Boehner isn't on pot. He prefers the bottle. "The drug war is a multi-decade billion dollar failure that I've championed in the name of good policy. Now that my political career is over and I'm on the K street track, let's end the drug war. My opinion matters now that I have no credibility left."

bohener seems like a nice guy

John Boehner ""There is a lot of cash rolling around". Nothing like greed to cause a change of heart.

That's good and I'm glad
Trump will be on the bandwagon. Under the table, of course!!
John Boehner for president!
Hannity====hypocrite slumlord
His pupils are dialated he keeps licking his lips, boehner is lit!

Lord Jesus…really??? I.just.can't.
The prohibition of Cannabis is wholly unconstitutional across the board.
Legalization will lead to over supply. Intrinsic value of weed is $4 a pound. You're betting on a comodity that will be mass produced and farmed.

I think they are both high. lol

Money Talks.
Money, money, money! Keep it out of government hands but legalize it!!
