– Some Oregon lawmakers (2 Republicans and 2 Democrats) are trying to overhaul their medical marijuana law. They want the state to control production and ban private growing. Then, they want to tax medical marijuana patients at $98-per-ounce. That’s twice as much as what was proposed in a California bill for recreational users.
I guess in a time of economic distress like the present, our nation’s cancer and MS patients need to step up and pay their share for once.
– On a similar subject, Josh Farley reports on the Bruce Olson trial in the Kitsap Sun.
– As the marijuana decriminalization bill dies in the House, two University of Washington researchers, Katherine Beckett and Steve Herbert, explain why they made a mistake:
This report draws on a wide range of data sources to assess the consequences and costs of enforcing criminal laws that prohibit the use of marijuana. Despite widespread and longstanding disagreement about the continuation of marijuana prohibition, the number and rate of marijuana arrests have increased significantly in the United States since the early 1990s. These arrests are not evenly distributed across the population, but are disproportionately imposed on African Americans. Our findings regarding the costs and consequences of marijuana prohibition, as well as state and local efforts to relax it, are summarized below.
Finding 1: Intensified enforcement of marijuana laws does not achieve the stated goals of marijuana prohibition.
• Marijuana arrests in the U.S. have increased dramatically since 1992. In 2006, there were a record 829,625 marijuana arrests. Nearly half (44%) of the roughly 1.9 million annual drug arrests were for marijuana.
• Despite increases in marijuana arrests, the price of marijuana dropped; its average potency increased; it has become more readily available; and marijuana use rates increased during the 1990s, the decade of increasing rapidly increasing marijuana arrests. It thus appears that the goals of marijuana prohibition have not been achieved.
Finding 2: The collective costs of marijuana prohibition for the public are significant; The personal costs to individuals and their families are also substantial, even in the absence of incarceration
• The enforcement of the laws prohibiting marijuana consumes significant fiscal and organizational resources that could usefully be allocated toward other pressing public safety goals.
• Marijuana arrests are not evenly distributed across the population, but are disproportionately imposed on African Americans.
• The enforcement of marijuana laws imposes a range of social, psychological, and familial costs on those arrested for marijuana law violations. A complete accounting of the costs and benefits of marijuana prohibition requires consideration of these non-monetary costs.
• A full and adequate analysis of the cost of enforcing current marijuana laws requires better and more complete record-keeping and data reporting by the police and others in the criminal justice system.
Finding 3: Decriminalizing marijuana and deprioritizing enforcement of Marijuana laws Leads to no significant increase in marijuana use.
• Many states and localities have either decriminalized marijuana or deprioritized the enforcement of marijuana laws.
• There is no evidence that the decriminalization of marijuana by certain states or the deprioritization of marijuana enforcement in Seattle and other municipalities caused an increase in marijuana use or related problems.
• This conclusion is consistent with the findings of studies indicating that the increasing enforcement of marijuana laws has little impact on marijuana use rates, and that the decriminalization of marijuana in U.S. states and elsewhere did not increase marijuana use

A story in the soon-to-be-extinct fishwrapper this morning says GOP legislators want state workers to pay more for their health insurance. I suppose that’s inevitable, given the budget situation, along with hiring and pay freezes. But this is, in reality, a pay cut for the workers which means they will have less income they can spend which means they will buy less from Republican-owned businesses.
Republicans just don’t get it. Their solution is ALWAYS cutting workers’ pay. They don’t seem to understand that workers are most of he consumers, and without consumers, you don’t have businesses. They’re determined to economically kill off their own customers. That looks like economic suicide to me.
Well, if we’re going to cut workers’ pay, I think we should cut executive pay, too. That’s one way we could roll back the obscene price increases in grocery stores. You can get more cost savings from cutting one CEO’s $20 million compensation in half than you can by making 10,000 state workers pay $80 a month more for their health insurance. So why not do the obvious and cut CEO pay? Why don’t Republicans advocate that?

@29 Best executive summary of puttybutt’s gas problem I’ve ever seen.
Roger Rabbit spews:
WASL Comes To The Workplace
An article in Business Week online discusses how corporate HR departments are harnessing a new generation of software to evaluate the “worth” of employees.
This approach assumes everything that makes an employee valuable can be detected, recorded, and correctly weighted by software writers.
It puts “quants” — the same whiz kids who wrecked Wall Street — in charge of your livelihood.
Well, okay, let’s humor these idiots a moment and ask a simple question: Will this new technology be used to give raises to “valuable” employees, or only used to fire employees who may be productive and valuable but whose performance isn’t captured by the software? Will bosses come running to high-scoring employees, waving their test results, and offering them raises? What do you think?
I think it’s going to create work for a whole new generation of lawyers who figure out how to create new class-action causes of action against companies that rush into data-mining as a new technique to take advantage of workers. As a lawyer, I welcome this development! Plaintiff’s lawyers, like CEOs, can never be too rich.

Lee, your silence to my question is deafening.
Roger Rabbit spews:
Using data-mining techniques to come up with creative new ways of selecting (and de-selecting) employees is just one more reason not to work.
I mean, the expectations that employers are already putting on employees are already so completely impossible to satisfy, why should anyone bother to even try being an employee or satisfying a boss? You can never work hard enough or produce enough to satisfy your boss, so why even fucking try? It’s like trying to paddle a kayak up Niagara Falls.
Well, my daddy didn’t raise any fools, so I don’t waste my time and energy on working for a boss. I work for myself! I get paid for doing nothing and producing nothing, just like bosses! Frankly, I don’t think anyone should work for someone else. I visualize a society in which everyone is a self-employed independent contractor.
I mean, why should a janitor accept wages of $9.00 an hour to work for some asshole who’s continually socking him with “speed ups” and making him work off the clock, when he can start his own janitorial business and charge the bastard $100 an hour for the same services?
Look, when you sweep floors in a bank or office building, you have overhead costs, not to mention labor costs, so $100 an hour is a reasonable shop rate to charge someone who wants their building swept and the trash baskets emptied. There has to be a reasonable profit margin for the service provider. Auto repair shops charge $100 an hour, so why shouldn’t janitors get that, too? They’re running a business too.
With most lawyers now charging $300 an hour or more, it seems reasonable that $100 an hour should be the minimum that businesses should expect to pay for services of all kinds, whether it’s sweeping floors or wrapping cheeseburgers in that greasy yellow paper that cheeseburders come in.
Republican business owners should have no difficulty understanding this principle. After all, they’re the ones who instituted the idea of paying private mercenaries $150,000 a year, whereas soldiers who are government employees get only $15,000 a year for doing the same work.
As a society, we won’t prosper until we move away from the concept of employment and embrace the concept of self-employment in which everyone is an independent contractor.

3. The huge, record deficit put in by Bush and the republicans due to the Iraq war (1 trillion wasted and still going up). All the republican whining about the stimulus package and not a word about the wasted money, no-bid contracts and unneccessary war the republicans supported.

I agree – Puddy needs to move to a place where like-minded people run things – like rural Texas. Puddy would feel more comfortable there with the Bush defenders and the die-hard conservatives.
Yup, DWB might be a problem but there would not be any “damn liberals” to complain about the practice. You know, liberals, the kind of people that would get upset about illegal use of RICO to target people of color and to steal and hold them hostage until they pay up.

The reason that wingnuts are soiling their diapers is because Andrew Breitbart got humiliated by a black Princeton professor (Michael Eric Dyson), so they’re trying to attack Bill for saying supposedly “racist” things. A black man falling for that is possibly the saddest thing I’ve seen in my life.

@72
Bob Kerrey – Democratic, need Puddy say more?
Yes, you do need to say more. Just because someone is a member of the Democratic Party does not mean that any of us endorse his or her views or character. For you not to understand that is unbelievably sad.
Again, Puddy, I have to ask you this again. Do you have any semblance of self-respect? Do you not care about how much you humiliate yourself in these threads? Do all of us a favor and find a healthy hobby. I know a lot of people end up as the village idiot, but this is 2009, you’re not stuck in this “village”. You can go somewhere else. You can go someplace where people are at the same level as you mentally. You don’t have to be the stupidest person in the room.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Stooge@73: Puddy likes Dyson. Search the HA archives and show me where Puddy has attacked Dyson. Dyson is articulate, unlike you. Puddy disagrees with Dyson’s politics.
It’s Bill Maher who hates black conservatives. This show cemented it.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Stooge@74 said:
Then why do your “friends” use these arguments on this blog all the time?
Vitter visits a prostitute. Now all Republican senators visit prostitutes.
Craig is signaling he is gay. Now all Republican senators are gay.
Yet you look the other way. Your friends started this type of argument.
Always wanting it both ways. Fool!
You and stillbentover. Friends forever!
steve spews:
To be a Republican these days you have to believe that the recession that started in March 2001 was the “Clinton recession”, inherited by the Bush administration, and that the current recession, which started in December 2007 is the “Obama recession”. As Dick Cheney says, “Don’t blame us.”
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
The exchange between Breitbart and Maher
Right now if you look online you’ll see that “Atlas Shrugged” and Ayn Rand’s books are, are, you know, flying off of the bookshelves, of the virtual bookshelves… – Breitbart
Well, so’s ammo in Oklahoma. – Maher
Right, well okay… – Breitbart
Oklahoma’s out of ammo because they’re afraid that Obama and his Negro army are going to come and get you. – Maher
Who’s afraid of, who’s, where’s this racism coming from? I haven’t seen this online. – Breitbart
Yep, in Lee’s World that’s a joke.
YLB spews:
76 – Your kind started the holier than thou bullshit.
Now too bad – you’re stuck with it.
YLB spews:
78 – You’re too deluded Stupes. So many people in focus groups said they couldn’t vote for Obama because then the blacks would rise up and get their pound of flesh. Very fearful stupid people – the kind that listen to Limbaugh.
I’ll try to dig up the NPR show where I heard this.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Lee farted: “Clarence Thomas, a, a black man who does not represent 95 percent of black people.” – Bill Maher
Where’s the data Lee? Or is this another Lee’s World moronic statement?
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Clueless wonder@80: Who said this?
Democratics who voted for Hillary in the primary. Puddy placed their racist Democratic words here. Need to see the links again?
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Puddy refound this article clueless wonder… It’s from your favrit kook-aid location so maybe it can knock some sense into your thick skull about who calls who what. http://www.dailykos.com/story/.....203/495086
Not one of us so it’ll probably bounce off that thick granite skull. Well… one can hope.
Amazed spews:
Does anyone actually have any tangible evidence that The Puddimoron is Black, as he continually claims? After all, he also claims to have intelligent reasoning capabilities, an idea demonstrably absurd. I certainly do not believe it. He is a poseur in everything else.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
clueless wonder view the racism of whitey against Clarence Thomas and how other blacks and whites eat it up: http://tomdegan.blogspot.com/2.....igger.html
But then this is nuthin new to Puddy. Democratics are racists.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Wanna say that to my face Amazed? Rainier Valley 2:30 PM Seattle, Othello and MLK. I’m sure the bros and sis would love to hear it too.
Chris Stefan spews:
@86
Well Puddy we have no proof you are actually black other than your word.
Tell you what, why don’t you show up to Drinking Liberally next week? Introduce yourself around. Heck I’m sure any number of us would even buy you the drink of your choice if you showed up.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Chris, been to DL twice. Ask the [ir]regulars. Walked up to Goldy and introduced myself. Darryl gave me tips on my son’s bass amp guitar. Met Geov and Lee. Sat down with Dr & Mrs SeattleJew and ate dinner. Met others there. Brought PacMan there once. Was asked to join a podcast.
Now Puddy has scouts on Tuesday nights. Preparing for the summer as Ass’t Scout Master.
Been to lunch twice with GBS. Was to meet stillbentover but the chump punked.
Nuff SAID Sucka!
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Wow Amazed disappeared.
Figgers!
YLB spews:
Shit Stupes. You do this all the time.
You’re whole schtick is “I left the reservation, now I’m holier than thou!”.
Bullshit on that! You’re not holier and you’re sure as hell aren’t smarter – you’ve been losing for 4 long years and you’re going to keep on losing!
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
clueless wonder, if you gonna quote Puddy use all of #74. Puddy don’t play dat. That’s why you are the clueless wonder. So clueless they wonder why you such a village idiot.
Your whole schtick is…………… monomaniacal.
More zzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz from the clueless village fool. Remember clueless wonder, don’t play in traffic.

91 – I’ll do what the fuck I please fool.
You can go back to your Limbaugh now.
As for Thomas, I don’t care about the fool. Looks like a crappy judge to me who votes with Nino, Roberts and Alito well over 90 percent of the time.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
So easy to pull the strings of Pavlov’s dog!
So easy. That’s why a libtard called you monomaniacal. HAHAHAHAHA
So easy. Where am I going to Limbaugh on Sunday moron? Did you read the Kos link fool? You should have felt at home on Kos.
You one of dem neo-liberals! http://www.globalexchange.org/.....fined.html Sucks to be you.
Of course you’d say that about Justice Thomas. You clueless village agrees with everything that proceeds from the fingers of stillbentover.
Not fresh and definitely no brains.
YLB spews:

I don’t support anything that touts the few getting filthy rich at the expense of the many.
YOU on the other hand worship that shit.

correctnotright spews:
@84: Puddy is big, black and a republican. He is not lying about that. GBS has confirmed it.
The only thing bigger than Puddy….is his ego.
As far as Clarence Thomas – just because he is black does not excuse the fact that he is a second-rate mind and judge. As someone once said, Clarence Thomas is no Thurgood Marshall.
correctnotright spews:
And it is not like it is hard to find plenty of republican invective against Obama, Holder and the many other black democrats.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
NutRight, when you are a black conservative one needs an ego, ergo, you are swimming upstream against your peeps.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
NutRight, Obama took Holder to the woodshed. Did you forget this already?
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
NutRight added:
You get some nutjob response (halfnhalf) from the HuffPo and you use that as a comment?
And also said by a “Victor Laszlo” (NAZIS FOR JESUS) probably a fictitious name! With a name like that I doubt he’s a black man. But we can see from his site he’s “progressive”
Why do you choose white peeps with problems NutJob? You are a true nutjob.
steve spews:
If Puddy wants to admire a black judge then he might try Charles Z. Smith, the first black Washington State Supreme Court Justice.
http://depts.washington.edu/civilr/smith.htm
I can never forget that he helped me out as a kid. Imagine. A black judge taking note of a po’ white boy.
He’s an amazing man who served his country in many ways. Any attempt to summarize his achievments must unfortunately leave out the stories of all of those, like me, who’s lives he’s touched and changed for the better.
correctnotright spews:
Actually Puddy, I did not get that quote from anywhere – I was just re-using the line from the VP debate with Dan Quayle.
I am sure, though, that someone else besides me has thought of it since it rings so true.
ByeByeGOP spews:
Puffybutt is a race traitor – an oreo – he wouldn’t be caught dead in a black neighborhood with actual real black people in it. They’d string his self-loathing ass right up. Not only is he a traitor to America, he’s a traitor to his own people. How low can you go, just look at him – he’s a piece of shit lost in the wildnerness supporting the hate America crowd because he hates his own life. Pathetic.
ByeByeGOP spews:
Hey Puffybutt this traitor just found karma is a bitch. Maybe you will too asswipe.

Mr. Cynical spews:
As GBS will attest, Puddy is a fine man with a great wife and 2 very bright sons…he doesn’t need Santa Klaus Obama to survive like most KLOWNS. Obama is down to a Strong Approval Rating of only +4. It was +32 less than 2 months ago. Folks are sick of Obama’s bullshit.

stillbentovergettingreamedbyrujax,
By the attack you will know them. Delirious fool. What strikes me as odd is GBS will meet me in the hood and break bread anytime and anywhere while stillbentovergettingreamedbyrujax runs from a confrontation.
You are a useful idiot, who has so many issues you need a subscription to figger them out.
Politically Incorrect spews:
Jon Stuart (Liebowitz) criticized Jim Cramer for Cramer’s bad stock picks, like Bear Stearns. Cramer’s been making bad stock choices on his show on CNBC for years. It wasn’t until he made some jive-ass comment about the Milk Chocolate Messiah that Liebowitz (Stuart) took Cramer to task for it. If Cramer had implied Bush was to blame, Liebowitz wouldn’t have uttered a peep about Cramer’s bad stock picks over on his show at CNBC.
Stuart doesn’t use his real last name, Liebowitz, preferring to be seem more Anglo to his audience. Any guesses why?
