President Joe Biden stands to make significant political gains if marijuana is rescheduled under his administrative directive, according to a new survey that reveals majority support for the reform. It also found that marijuana enjoys greater favorability with voters compared to Biden and former President Donald Trump. The poll conducted by Lake Research Partners and […]
A unified set of standards that you like though, right? Not what the people you disagree with like? I have to assume you don’t want Republican law choices to control every state.
United States was based of the idea of local and state governments united under a federal government, not dictated by that government. It’s funny how in the 90s the New World Order was a huge fear, but but slowly seems like people online are leaning towards it now.
I don’t know Canadians government system well, but I do know it would be comparing to a completely different system. Either way, I’m sure there are benefits and drawbacks.
But in the last few decades, America has funneled more power to the President and the Federal government and I don’t believe the government version of “trickle-down economics” is the right approach. For example, imagine a Republican held Federal government having authority over California. I don’t think that’d have a positive outcome for the Californians.
Our local/state government is a solid structure, but my city of more than 100k people had 8k votes last local election. People should focus on local as much as they do federal, and I bet a lot more people would be happy with the governing of their area.
Canada’s government is essentially 15 people, elected from the total population of the country, all 427 people, and they cross-country ski or snowshoe out to a big igloo-like capitol building with one medium sized conference room table inside, where they hold committee-style meetings and talk about what needs to be done, such as codifying new words for snow, I assume.
Do you want a Federal government that has control over everything?
I mean, it sounds great when you agree with the Federal goverment I guess, but people should focus more on their own local and state governments.
Those governments dont make as dramatic of TV though. So where peoples votes really count the most, most people aren’t paying attention.
so you would rather be born in a random State and just hope you win the geographic lottery and have good laws? forgot just need to vote better
yes want a unified set of standards we all have to play by and not have to worry if I crossed the wrong state line would be nice

That’s mostly how it works up here in Canada. So, feel free to compare and contrast.
