   Cannabis: A Lost History

   Cannabis, better known as marijuana, has been used for its medicinal properties for thousands of years. It’s been heralded as a “cure-all,” revered for its healing properties, particularly for pain but also as a potential anticancer treatment. Marijuana was a popular botanical medicine in the 19th and 20th centuries, common in U.S. pharmacies of the time.

   It wasn’t until 1970 that the herb was declared a Schedule 1 controlled substance in the U.S., a classification reserved for drugs with “high potential for abuse” and “no accepted medical use.” Three years later the Drug Enforcement Agency was formed to enforce the newly created drug schedules, and the fight against marijuana use began. In light of its history as a global panacea for all sorts of ills, it’s classification as a controlled substance is particularly unjustified.

   As noted in the documentary “Cannabis: A Lost History,” written, directed and narrated by Chris Rice, marijuana has been “an integral part of human civilization,” featuring in ancient Japanese cave paintings, as well as Chinese and Siberian burial rites dating back to 3000 B.C. Based on the evidence — especially the discovery that the human body is equipped with a cannabinoid system — it appears our relationship with cannabis goes back to the very dawn of the human species.

   Another case of clear employee incompetence and a waste of taxpayers money on the island, the Johnson case has been ongoing for years, all over the news and internet and these lazy, uninformed jokers at BNSI…are not even ashamed to admit they know nothing about it and their job is to always do research…nuisances.

   https://barbadostoday.bb/2018/07/17/bnsi-unaware-of-johnson-johnson-baby-powder-cancer-causing-concerns/

   “The Barbados National Standards Institution (BNSI) today said it was in the dark regarding concerns that Johnson & Johnson (J&J) Baby Powder may be linked to ovarian cancer.

   The pharmaceutical giant was last week ordered to pay US$4.69 billion to 22 women and their families who had claimed that asbestos in the company’s talcum powder products had caused them to develop ovarian cancer.

   A jury in a Missouri circuit court awarded US$4.14 billion in punitive damages and US$550 million in compensatory damages to the women, who had accused the company of failing to warn them about cancer risks associated with its baby and body powders.”

   A similar debate is being had in Trinidad. The below extracted from a T&T chat group – David, BU

   “Everyone is a victim, including all races, people of every religion and the atheists also, the govt and PNM are victims, the PM is a victim and he again used the "v" word recently ( when something is deeply buried in your psyche ….) but a selective victim e.g. when energy prices drop the PM and govt are helpless victims and the UNC victimized them, but when energy prices rise then the PM and his govt  have saved T&T and deserve praise for managing the economy and taking it out of recession into recovery, the gays/LGBT etc are victims and even people with their private homes are wrongly characterized as "evil" because they do not want to rent gay people (this has reached to such a stupid and irrational level), the 1% want to be victims because their parents come here and work hard so they deserve to rape & pillage the nation with the help of their political puppets  – as if the 99% did not work hard and are lazy bums and should not complain when the PNM & UNC govts gave away Chaguaramas (Eric Williams fought for that, now given away by a PNM govt with special protection for the 1% while blood flows in the rest of the nation!), and in recent times the ganga people are now claiming victimhood and all that goes with it e.g. discrimination, and want "special" treatment….

   The last place you should really use as an example or model for a ganja industry and decriminalization of tht stuff is JAMAICA. Go google for ‘highest crime rate" "Crime Jamaica" etc if you want to know.

   Like how they used to say calypso, soca, pan etc will bring in billions, now they saying ganja, arts & culture including film & fashion etc, will bring in billions, as if it is a low-hanging fruit waiting for Trinis to pick it! The ganja industry is well-developed elsewhere and is not easy to penetrate and make a profit, there are no long lines waiting eagerly for Trini ganja…..and T&T is not a low-income place where you can assume a ganja industry  will be profitable.

   And, it is not simple a matter of decriminalization of ganja or any narcotic/drug with such harmful addiction/health effects, in the category of alcohol/cocaine/cigarettes etc; if we can’t handle crime now, alcoholism, drug addiction, narco trade, gambling, youth delinquency & violence, etc do you think we can successfully deal with more of all of that from ganja all over the nation? There has to be improvement in law enforcement, judiciary, etc and a ne set of laws to deal with ganja decriminalization, just like there are laws, taxes controls, who can use it and where/when, for alcohol etc. So demanding ganja decriminalization without getting down to specifics of implementation, and challenges involved, and touting ganja industry making billions without detailing the difficulties, competing against high-quality well-established industries elsewhere etc,  are useless and merely words, hot air…..but that applies to T&T generally where project management/monitoring & evaluation, procurement, maintenance etc are not in our vocabulary;  hence, a govt could say they write a book on UNC corruption (they were damn corrupt!) while they are themselves matching or beating the UNC in corruption, shopping for boats.ferries/military equipment, giving away the nation at pepper-corn rates like a fire sale,  all over the world they shopping like they are in a mall shopping for sneakers, cutting basic services for the poor & vulnerable to get money for their their useless/corrupt/eatahfood vanity projects to feed the 1%, political massas, financiers, themselves, friends, families, sycophants.”

   Economics of ganja

   Billions to be made in fastest-growing industry globally
