Here are people that aren’t feeling the “Joy” Kamala

Kamala Harris – This presidential candidate is disregarding public health and safety and the future of our kids for drug money that will end up in her campaign war chest.
The families of dead children after their suicides – THC is the number one drug found in the bodies of young suicides.

The families of children in addiction therapy – THC is the drug driving the most young people to addiction therapy.

The families and individuals who have pot induced psychosis – This can become a life long and devastating disease

The families of those who have been killed by pot impaired drivers – pot impaired driving deaths in WA double after “legalization”

The children of drug addicted parents and the families of children who have been injured or died while under the care of pot impaired parents – many children left in cars, children drowned while parents sleep, children burned

Those in emergency rooms scromiting – Hyperemesis syndrome The users who have discovered they have high levels of heavy metal poisoning – pot plants collect and concentrate heavy metals from the soil. Further concentrated in hash oil products.

The users/addicts themselves – although they often won’t admit it. They are trapped by the drug, often needing to use multiple or even a dozen times a day, their relationships are suffering, they may suffer from amotivational syndrome.

The employers of users who can’t depend on sound judgement or dependability of using employees.

The unborn whose brains and bodies are being injured by the prenatal use of parents.

October 25, 2018 – Car insurance rates are likely to increase 4-6% in states with legal marijuana, a leading insurance industry actuary says.

“You’re looking at an increase of around 4 to 6 percent in overall coverage,” James Lynch, chief actuary of the Insurance Information Institute told the Boston Herald October 24, 2018. Even if drivers don’t smoke pot themselves, their insurance rates will increase regardless, Lynch said.

A 6 percent increase in insurance premiums on all 615,950 registered vehicles in Vermont would cost about $28.3 million. The average Vermont car insurance premium is $764, according to Reviews.com. A 6% increase would add $46 in annual premiums, for a total of $810. Continue reading Car insurance rates to increase in states with legal marijuana →
