It was the G7 group of Industrialized nations that imposed the idea of a cashless society as though humans were a spaceship living finite creature. Digital control of money means digital knowledge of one's spending habits. It is all about control. Once cashless they could just cut off your wallet until you obey.

Same argument was raised in the Gambling issue that has totally wasted and drained the economic,social personal finances and living quality if the Family Islands. No consideration was given that once webshops drained out the cash from Family Islands each government and pension payday they bring nothing back in return. For every one job created by gambling one hundred lives are destroyed.

Public Health, evidence based, education and possible taxes should be the holistic approach. The roll-out of gambling legalization did not take Public Health as an equal priority resulting in massive economic, social and personal harms. Marijuana is not that kind of destructive creature but effectively harms by possibly interfering with the brains relaxation cannibinoid centers. A very sustained and hard workout produces the safest calming effect. But Marijuana use is endemic in the Bahamas according to PAHO and can be really obtained so as most countries saw prohibition ruined young persons lives through the court system and stigmaization overtook being informed. With legalization cones responsibility not the image of kids seeing normalization as a show off peer event as it will place them at a life disadvantage just chilling out for six hours and ignoring essential life activities. On the medical side Marijuana dosing is hard so it is shunned by pharmacy. Evidence though shows it could assist persons with chronic pains lasting over a year as a result of cancers, burns or other areas of nerve damage. Being cannibas certified calls for a lot of deep study into biochemistry of the brain and its reaction to pain, nerve damage, opioids and avoiding high THC potency. All Marijuana legally sold must be labeled according to THC/CBD percentages.

This Brave PLP is doing great social justice by normalizing the frightening stigma out there about Marijuana use while also not encouraging persons to use it. Laws against public smoking should be implemented we need data on the numbers and age of persons who use regularly and for what purpose. Most persons use it for stress. Marijuana would return sex life to menopausal females as CBD is a mood enhancer and relaxer. The problem is choosing the correct bio availability time for maximum effect duration. Edibles works with digestion although it is more dignified for some adults the effects could take a while. Just a shallow inhale of the smoke works within fifteen minutes and the relaxed state lasts for about 3 hours.

In The Bahamas Marijuana youth statistical data is unavailable for first time users. Environmental factors however could overshadow multigenerational family in-home influence, which leads to children's choice of negative peer affirmation company outside the home. Demographics of a home may include grandparents, a single mother, children and grandchildren. With plenty love, overwhelming social and peer pressure into negatives. Demographics with more parental hands on stiff control even after Marijuana exposure could produce other results. Today we face an ensurgency of persons hooked on internet addictions with gambling sinful pornography overwhelming social sugar that sweetens many above the dangers of endocannabinoid malfunction and obesity which leads to a troubling life of survival.

The Canadian government weighed firstly the lives destroyed by prohibition as is The Bahamian Government. Drug cartels became billionaires and turf wars greatly increased the murder rate with innocents at times getting killed in the cross fire. Cannabis use is uncontrolled in its present society economic space. Persons at greatest danger to Marijuana use because of lack of education are all persons below 25 years of age. THC CBD used at different potency ratios can impact the cannibinoid system in the brain inducing a sense of catastrophic calmness and laziness at a time greatest productivity. According to WHO data Marijuana use is endemic at that critical age. According to Canadian data after Legalization there was no notable increase in use. Parents were educated on signs of abuse. Experimentation to addiction is complicated and depends on people, places and affirmation. Decriminalization and Legalization are different. Legalization allows organized government tax revenue and takes the money crime networks. Most adults don't realize addiction until they try to stop and withdrawal symptoms kick in. It is less destructive to the body than alcohol. Also less harmful fatalistic than DSM-5 cocaine or gambling. Those in palliative care close to death and in pain find a safer route through cannabis than opioid. I am certified through the Canadian Public Health Authority. Police resources are freed up 45%. It would be a challenge for Out Island Commissioners and local Government to enforce somethings like safety of taxable product but taxes of sales should be controlled by Central Government. Unregulated sales will be forced below control. Cannabis prescription is difficult and varies by regional water, heat, soil and a persons tolerance. But workable.
