Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica. You may know them better by one of their affectionate nicknames, such as weed, herb, pot, grass, bud, ganja and some others.

It's been called a war, and it's been going on for decades. The war on drugs has claimed thousands of lives, cost billions of dollars, and yet we are no closer to winning it. The prohibition of drugs creates more problems than it solves, and the criminalization of drugs only makes things worse. Why can't we win this war? What can be done to finally bring it to a close? In today's episode of Pod Bless America, Jim and Dan talk about the war on drugs. They will share their perspective on legalizing marijuana, the impact of decriminalizing drug users, and the government's response to marijuana legalization. Jeff, the conspiracy analyst, will also speak about how Joe Biden handled the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement Act. Enjoy! In This Episode1:29 - Why the war on drugs is a losing battle3:43 - How the war on drugs started7:54 - The conspiracy theory behind the war on drugs11:25 - Jim's perspective on drug laws and how he enforces them17:53 - Why jail is not the solution for drug addicts19:09 - Why America cannot decriminalize drug users the way Portugal did26:27 - Jim's thoughts on legalizing marijuana35:31 - Jeff's view on the government's response to marijuana legalization43:08 - A quick look at the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act47:24 - Drawing a line between guns and drugs Favorite Quotes15:21 - "So that's their thinking. We're gonna lock you up, you're gonna be forced to detox. But here's the problem; so you detox but you don't get the mental help you need to fight the addiction, to understand the addiction, and to break free of that addiction. So when you get out, what's the first thing you do to celebrate? They go back and they use the amount they were using before they went to prison. Other bodies can't handle it. Boom! Done. You die with a needle in your arm. You don't even have time to take that needle outta your arm. Ask me how I know. I've seen plenty of them." - Jim Larkin 13:22 - "I've been in law enforcement for 29 years. It is illegal to possess, consume, use, and sell marijuana right now. And even though I do in my heart believe that it should be legal, it is a law. It's not unconstitutional. The states have a right to do what they want to do. and I will enforce that law." - Jim Larkin 18:30 - "Now you made the conscious decision the first time to try it (heroin). But after you made that one mistake and you tried it one time, you're done. You are rewired and your life now is consumed with doing nothing by trying to figure out where you're gonna get your next hit." - Jim Larkin Engage with Pod Bless America PodcastEmail: jim@pbapodcast.comFacebook Listen to more episodes of the Pod Bless America PodcastApple PodcastsSpotifyGoogle Podcasts  

The Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act of 2019 was introduced to the House of Representatives by Jerry Nadler and the Senate by Kamala Harris. Start Yourself UP right was the beginning of our investigation into the MORE Act. Ben and Lillian discuss the concerns and excitement they have with the act. People who have wrongfully been affected by the war on drugs have a harder time getting into the cannabis industry due to a lack of funds and or criminal offenses. The MORE Act has a social equity plan to pardon some cannabis offenses and promote small minority business owners. We hit on topics such as why cannabis should not be classified as a schedule 1 drug, the best strains to boost concentration while reading an intensive document like the MORE Act, where the money is going with the opportunities trust fund, and how the president should be able to smoke a joint; it is a stressful job!Warning: this episode may contain adult humor and contentDisclaimer: There are no claims about cannabis in this podcast. The information given is simply recommendations and a way to expand thinking about the plant. Always make sure to look up information, double-check facts, and research the best options for you and your diagnosis. It is important to note that since cannabis is still federally illegal as a schedule 1 drug, make sure that you are looking up the laws according to your state to consume legally.Sources:American Civil Liberties UnionCongress.gov

Amazon announced Tuesday it supports the federal legalization of marijuana, and that the company is revising a controversial workplace policy critics say has been used to keep employees working at a breakneck pace.The twin announcements, Amazon said, are aimed at reiterating the company's commitment to being an attractive employer.In a blog post, Dave Clark, CEO of Amazon's worldwide consumer division, said changing state laws on marijuana mean Amazon will no longer include the substance in the company's pre-employment drug tests and that the drug will now be treated the same as alcohol.Positions subject to regulation by the US Department of Transportation will still include the marijuana test, Clark said, adding that the company will "continue to do impairment checks on the job and will test for all drugs and alcohol after any incident."Clark went on to say that Amazon is endorsing a federal marijuana legalization bill, the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act. "We hope other employers will join us, and that policymakers will act swiftly to pass this law."Time off policy changeAmazon is also taking a closer look at its so-called Time off Task policy, which automatically tracks workers' productivity by analyzing the time they spend on breaks. Critics have said that Time off Task contributes to a stressful work environment that treats workers as cogs in a machine rather than as people.On Tuesday, Clark appeared to acknowledge that criticism even as he claimed the policy is easily "misunderstood.""The primary goal of the Time off Task metric is to understand whether there are issues with the tools that people use to be productive, and only secondarily to identify under-performing employees," he wrote. "Starting today, we're now averaging Time off Task over a longer period to ensure that there's more signal and less noise—reinforcing the original intent of the program, and focusing Time off Task conversations on how we can help. The goal is to re-focus the conversations on instances where there are likely true operational issues to resolve. We believe this change will help ensure the Time off Task policy is used in the way it was intended."- text by Brian Fung, CNN

The U.S. House of Representatives approved a bill decriminalizing marijuana at the federal level on Friday. Branded as the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act, or MORE Act, the bill removes cannabis from the list of federally controlled substances and facilitates canceling low-level federal convictions and arrests related to marijuana. While the legislation is not expected to pass in the Republican-controlled Senate, this is the first time Congress has acted on the issue and brings even more attention to the runoff races in Georgia that will determine the majority in January.
