<description>Washington State voters, exercise your right to vote. Get I-1068 on the November ballot by signing the I-1068 petition. Washington State Initiative-1068, the Marijuana Reform Act, with enough signatures to get it on the November ballot, would allow you to vote for or against the legalization of Marijuana. let&amp;#039;s allow the voters to decide, not some biased politicians backed by special interest groups and lobbyists hired by pharmaceutical, alcohol, tobacco, and other major companies.  I-1068 would &amp;quot; remove all civil and criminal penalties for persons eighteen years or older who cultivate, possess, transport, sell, or use marijuana. Marijuana would no longer be defined as a &amp;#039;controlled substance&amp;#039;. civil and criminal penalties relating to drug paraphernalia and provisions authorizing seizure or forfeiture of property would no longer apply to marijuana related offenses committed by persons eighteen years or older. the measure would retain current restrictions and penalties applicable to persons under eighteen&amp;quot;.  visit sensiblewashington.org for more information.  </description>

<description>when I think of healthcare for Medical Marijuana card holders, I think of a very real and pervasive problem that Obama&amp;rsquo;s Health Care doesn&amp;rsquo;t address. most Medical Marijuana patients are experiencing severe problems that prescription drugs fail to cure or diminish in severity. I consider it a crime that the Obama administration has conveniently refused to include, in his Health Care plan, legislation addressing this issue. Meanwhile, medical marijuana patients are forced to tolerate ambiguous and unjust laws, and law enforcement violation of their rights.   </description>

<description>i have to admit , though, that most politicians these days are nothing more than puppets on a string. the Puppet Masters appear to be the big businesses who hire all of those special interest groups and lobbyists who elect our politicians these days. i&amp;#039;ll let you be the judge as to pinpointing the culprits behind the screen. </description>

<description>prescription drugs are the problem! look at the side effects that the pharmaceutical companies are willing to disclose to the American public on television....of course it is only because it is required by law. what is wrong with America, today, is that Marijuana is illegal because the very same pharmaceutical companies who claim that they have the medication to solve your problems are selling you a bag of goods....and not necessarily for your own good. if marijuana were properly researched as to its potential benefits for curing illnesses, the prescription pharmaceutical businesses would be bankrupt. </description>

<description>either way, with an at least 50%  divorce rate in the U.S., why would anyone in their right mind want to get married?.....including women. they may as well go gambling at one of the many casinos that now exist throughout the U.S.. they are both idiots for getting married. my point is that people are never what they seem, and that people change as they age, and they change as they experience the contractual married life. people and their values and their perceptions of reality change throughout their lives. they are constantly reshaping their realities.  you marry one person, and you are shocked that he is not the person you envisioned. should this come as a surprise? i don&amp;#039;t think so. </description>
