    I have a question for you, how well versed are you in how the federal agencies work?

    How I laid things out, Biden is directing the agencies to reevaluate the status of marijuana. That’s how the system works, power has been given to the agencies and the president doesn’t get to unilaterally say “ok this is how it is now” unless we’re dealing with an authoritarian such as our previous president.

    Under our current one, there are checks and balances and things happen a bit slowly but he has done something. I understand it’s not instantaneous but our government has never and should never be instantaneous lest we end up having a king.

    Edit: looks like some people don’t appreciate checks and balances. Good grief.
