Sorry this is kinda political. Is there an asklemmypolitics group this would be better for? I’m hoping not to get into the libs vs progressives political debate we see everywhere on here… Just want to know what people are actually looking for.

    dude has had years to fix what trump broke. biden is, ultimately, a conservative and his actions show it.

    drug war. overblown military budget. lack of healthcare. letting dejoy just sit there destroying the post office. not pushing for expanding/changing the supreme court.

    any movement on any of these things.

      Aren’t they rescheduling cannabis soon? Too little too late?

      I can’t believe dejoy is still in the post office! That’s ridiculous

        Reading up on him, he has implemented initiatives for employee safety during delivery, improved sorting machines, and implementing a 2 cent increase in the price of forever stamps to try to make the usps service lose less money, all of which I like.

        But I do think the USPS not adopting a fleet of electric vehicles a few years back was a mistake.

        Anyways, I think he’s a net positive. And Biden can’t remove him directly, he would have to be voted out by a committee board.

        yeah, for me the rescheduling is very too little. it should be removed entirely and left to the states.

        to put it in some perspective, alcohol… one of the most dangerous things we do en masse, is not ‘scheduled’.

          Thy already said rescheduling isn’t going to change any federal to state inconsistencies of MJ still being illegal so dispensarys will still be unable to use banks and things like CDLs will still ban you for life from them if you get caught with weed in your system.

        Way too little too late. Credit where it’s due, great to have it rescheduled. But it should’ve been federally legalized or at a bear minimum decriminalized. I’m still going to vote Biden, but not because of anything he’s done. Pretty much just because Trump would be worse on every issue I care about.
