Ocasio-Cortez Slams The ‘Racial Injustice’ Of The Cannabis Business As White Men Profit

in #cannabis6 years ago


Instead of bitching and complaining about stuff like this, why doesn't she raise some money to fund people who didn't have the audacity to be born white men, so they can start some cannabis businesses? There is no border to entry, it just takes money. Like any industry which exists in the real world, the people who profit from it are the people who fund it.

She raised the possibility of “affirmative-action licensing” to boost the number of minorities in local cannabis businesses so that “frontline communities” could now “reap the benefits or recoup some segment of costs that they bore in the 1990s during the war on drugs.”

So, one could make fascist laws that set race and background as an entry barrier / automatic entry... or you could raise some money and help for real. With fair competition, not some bullshit, virtue signaling, bully laws.

We don't need rules and regulations to prop people up or push people down based solely on who they are on the outside. If you want to help, give people money. It's that simple. She's going to be one of those politicians with 2 vacation homes still bitching about how laws keep the little people down, just wait.
