    Also can we get our student loans forgiven, punish the exopresident Trumpfus for the jan6 thing, limit the justices to like 5 years, remove all religious terms and uses from government docs and processes…etc…many other things that are much more relevant than the stickiest plant one could ever have imagined anyone would ever try to smoke.

      I forget the math but it should actually be 18 years for the justices so they can’t all get swapped out

        Yeah, you probably don’t want 8 because a two term president could do lots of damage. So 18 sounds fine. It should be retroactively implemented, let’s say 2 of the current judges per year?

      I hear you, but consider it goes well beyond the sticky plant - simply possessing marijuana in many areas of the US can still get you thrown in jail. With many of those same states enforcing “mandatory terms” for drug crimes, we have thousands of people jailed for years for non-violent offenses. We have a lot of huge issues to deal with, but the “War on Drugs” from the start was a thin veil for persecuting minorities, and it’s still going.

      I’m hoping for the rest of your list of requests, too, but personally I think federal weed legalization would have a wider-reaching, far more profound impact on our population than forgiving student loans.
