Q. 13 states now have medicinal marijuana. Oakland is taxing the sale and is raising millions for their municipality.Jobs have been created for the grow houses and farms ,security being hired for the dispenseries.This is extremely obviously beneficial for all participating states.The feds have made enforcement there lowest priority. Which do you think will be the last state to wake up and take advantage of the popular movement?
A. Let's take a second to analyze
#1 killer, beat out aids, heroin, murder, crack, cocaine, alcohol combined. Tobacco. 430,000 deaths per year. It's weird to think tobacco receives govt subsidies and is grown with radioactive fertilizer. #2 alcohol 85,000 deaths a year , even caffeine will kill around 10,000 a year. Mary Jane? 0 from cannabis use. Anywhere, 10,000 years of use and 0 kills attributed to cannabis. Addiction is a problem with Mary though. Mary Jane has more than any other users in rehab than any other drug... But why is this? Because when your caught with Cocaine... prison, Extasy.... Prison, Meth.... Prison, now weed? You have your choice you can go to prison or you can head into a rehab clinic or treatment center. It's the DEA showing that all these kids here are on marijuana. Only 3% of people in treatment were actually in need and willingly went into treatment.
Now addiction comes into play...
#1 - nicotine #2 - alchohol #3 - heroin #4 - Cocaine #5 - Coffee #6 - then marijuana.
Use marijuana for a year then stop then try the same thing with coffee....
Now is it a stepping stone? When on marijuana i don't think i've ever said let's go get ripped. I think i said give me chips and some water. Now 104 users of marijuana only 1 is a cocaine user. Less than 1 heroin. That's like sayin i choose alcohol as my drug of choice, now does that mean I am a candidate for black tar heroin?
Laziness? WIll you be useless? Well then 50,000,000 americans are lazy, let's also not forget that over half the canadian population has tried this drug. Look at the people who are smoking? Steven Jobbs - Apple Computers, Ted Turner CNN, Musicians, Virtually every presidential candidate has admitted to trying. Al Gore, Bush, Clinton. The people with personality problems and are lazy are going to lose their job anyway. Jesse Ventura YouTube it.
Potency? It's Dangerous HIGH THC BEWARE!!!!!
That's not changing and it's saracasm. There is always a harder portion it comes in levels. Think about Alchol, 151 Bacardi or 5 o'clock vodka? You can abuse everything even cheeseburgers but you don't see BK getting shut down. I can jam a fork in my eye, does that make that fork illegal?
You smoke too much, do you go home and beat your wife? No.... Do you go steal a car?? No! This is all black and white.
We are in prohibition for Marijuana.... what happened during prohibition of alcohol? Al Capone? V-Day massacre? Underground places? NASCAR? Alcohol poisoning went up 600% during prohibition
. Marijuana is a weed... It's worth more gram for gram than gold.
We say keep it out of the hands of the kids? Well if the government regulated it and stopped allowing drug dealers to make 400K a year and fund wars. Wouldn't this put the same regulation as alcohol? It's easier to get marijuana than it is to get Alcohol.
But my rant is over... so think about it man. A few decades ago we saw this with alcohol..... History repeats itself. Enough said.

What is the specific law that established a personal income tax in the USA?
Q. 'm tired of these idiots saying there is no law behind the personal income tax in the USA.
Can anyone point me to the initial law that establishes a personal income tax in the USA after the 16th Amendment was ratified?
I was really hoping for the text of the initial (first) congressional legislation passed, establishing the personal income tax.

A. The legislation you want would depend on what you think is the "first" income tax.
The very first income tax on individuals was created by the Revenue Act of 1861 to fund the Civil War. It did not last long after the war. The Wilson-Goram Act of 1894 established the second income tax, but was declared unconstitutional.
The first individual income tax imposed after ratification of the 16th Amendment was imposed by the Revenue Act of 1913, Section II, A. subdiv. 1, 38 Stat. 114, 166.
The 1913 Revenue Act provided in part,
"Subdivision 1. That there shall be levied, assessed, collected and paid annually upon the entire net income arising or accruing from all sources in the preceding calendar year to every citizen of the United States, whether residing at home or abroad, and to every person residing in the United States, though not a citizen thereof, a tax of 1 per centum per annum upon such income, except as hereinafter provided; and a like tax shall be assessed, levied, collected, and paid annually upon the entire net income from all property owned and of every business, trade, or profession carried on in the United States by persons residing elsewhere."
For purposes of the Revenue Act, "income" was defined at Section II B of the Act:
"Subject only to such exemptions and deductions as are hereinafter allowed, the net income of a taxable person shall include gains, profits, and income derived from salaries, wages, or compensation for personal service of whatever kind and in whatever form paid, or from professions, vocations, businesses, trade, commerce, or sales, or dealings in property, whether real or personal, growing out of the ownership or use of or interest in real or personal property, also from interest, rent, dividends, securities, or the transaction of any lawful business carried on for gain or profit, or gains or profits and income derived from any source whatever."
Under current Title 26 of the Internal Revenue Code, the statutes that specifically provide for the tax are 26 U.S.C. sections 1, 63, and 61.
Section 1 says, "A tax shall be imposed on the taxable income of...." and then it lists the various tax rates for married people, single people, etc.
Section 63 defines "taxable income" as gross income minus allowable deductions.
Section 61 defines "gross income" as income "from whatever source derived," including, but not limited to, a long list of items. The very first item on the list is "compensation for services," which includes wages.
Don't waste your breath, though, on the tax deniers. Nothing you can say will change their minds.

what work options are available for foreign medical graduates in usa?
Q. foreign medical graduate in usa unable to clear licensing exams needs to start working what are the other industries that would hire him for his medical knowledge base and skills.need finance even to go to school,so best option is to start working immediately.plz advice?
A. The clinical options are limited as most medical positions still require a license/certificate in the field; and if you use your "medical knowledge" with out a MD license you can get into quite a lot of trouble for practicing medicine with out a license. So in the public sector you will need to go back to school for a med tech (lab), nursing, PA etc license
In the private or research sector you could look for jobs in pharmaceutical sales, research (all kinds), clinical trials, medical records & insurance medical claims evaluations, university research positions, teaching (medical assistants, etc), administrative positions, nursing home positions, laboratory positions, etc.
Be very careful about passing yourself off (or implying) as a US medical doctor.

What is the best and most legitimate home business/work at home work that actually works, and how do I start?
Q. I'm looking for something I can do full-time from home that will replace and make me more money than my current 9 to 5. I'm looking for something that IS NOT A SCAM, and that takes VERY LITTLE money to get started.
A. I think the best home based business opportunity would be dealing with a product that is and always will be in high demand. There are a lot of products and services out there that are good. But you really need to find a business that you would injoy and something that would be easy to sale and not have to keep re-selling items. I think the best industry to look into is in the telecommunication industry, because it involves things that people will always use and pay for anyway, pretty much no matter what. You wouldn't have to worry if money became tight that they could easily run to the store and purchase on sale or be able to buy it at the dollar store. That's why we got involved in the world's largest direct selling telecommunications service provider that was started back in 1993. It's now a 15 year old, world wide international company. With headquarters in Farmington Hills, Michigan, Charlotte, Amsterdam, Sydney and Montreal. They have been featured in several magazines like USA Today, Success, Fortune etc. Inc 500 rated them the 22nd fastest growing company in revenue in it's first five years. They market in services people use every day and pay for anyway, like I had said. Services like Local and Long Distance telephones, Internet, Digital, video phones, Satellite TV, and all the major cellular phone companies like T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, Nextell, Altell etc as well. We save people money and make money at the same time. Every single month these people pay their bills, we make a percentage over and over again each month. That's just one way you get paid in this industry.
How many people do you know, or know of around the world that uses one or more of these services or products? . A lot of money involved in this industry.
But maybe your not into telecommunications. Maybe you like the challenge of having to consitantly run out on a daily bases and sale product after product after product. Only you can decide for yourself what type of home based business you would want to get involved in.
There are thousands of different home based business opportunities out there for you to look into in different industries. Below is a link to a yahoo blog in which a mom created to help people find something right for them. A lot of good industries to look into. I think this would give you some really good ideas to look into. None of the ones listed are scams, they are all legitament companies registered with the bbb.
Hope this helps you find a good home based business for you.
