CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— OUTSTANDING: High school students rally in Springfield against legalizing recreational marijuana; lawmaker coalition seeks slowdown in process – Robert McCoppin (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican should vehemently oppose legalizing recreational marijuana.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-students-rally-against-marijuana-legalization-20190306-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alarmed by the movement to legalize recreational marijuana in Illinois, high school students, law enforcement officials and lawmakers rallied against pot in Springfield on Wednesday. A coalition of about 40 lawmakers, led by Democratic state Rep. Marty Moylan of Des Plaines and House Republican leader Jim Durkin of Western Springs, also is sponsoring a resolution to slow down the effort to allow sales and taxation of cannabis. The resolution, supported primarily by suburban and downstate lawmakers, calls for delaying legalization so that lawmakers and stakeholders may consider the societal costs and examine data from other states. To show their opposition to legalization, about 90 students from Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Mundelein High School, and Kankakee High School rallied in the Capitol rotunda and met with lawmakers, according to Jamie Epstein, adult co-sponsor of Stevenson’s Catalyst Club. Carson Ezell, a member of the Catalyst Club at Stevenson, cited studies that found those who start using marijuana when they are young are more likely to become addicted, and that heavy marijuana use at a young age can lower one’s IQ. “As a teen, I feel the industry is really targeting us, with a lot of edibles in candy and fruit flavors,” he said. “It’s really scary to me.” The Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police also took part in the rally, citing data from Colorado showing more traffic accidents, fatalities and overall hospitalizations involving people with signs of marijuana use in their bodies. A spokesman for the Illinois branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Robert Moore, predicted that blacks will again be victimized by legalization through greater addiction, increased law enforcement penalties for drugged driving, and loss of jobs and public housing due to zero-tolerance drug policies. He also was skeptical of claims that the tax money will go to minority communities. “We don’t need an additional substance that’s going to impair our youth and citizens,” he said. “This is just bad legislation — bad for our community and bad for the nation.”)

— Total household net worth in the fourth quarter of 2018 dropped by the largest amount since the fourth quarter of 2008 when the country was amid a steep recession, according to data released Thursday by the Federal Reserve. – Christopher Ingraham
https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/03/07/household-net-worth-falls-by-largest-amount-since-great-recession-new-fed-data-show/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The typical American household, however, may not feel much of a financial pinch as a result of the drop. For starters, stocks have since recovered much of their late 2018 losses, although they remain below the record highs set earlier in the year. More important, most of the household wealth in the United States is owned by the country’s richest families. In 2016, for instance, the top 1 percent of families owned 40 percent of all household wealth, with the next 9 percent of families holding an additional 29 percent. That leaves 21 percent of the country’s net worth for the remaining 90 percent of American families. Furthermore, about half of American families don’t own any stocks, while the top 10 percent of families control about 84 percent of the stock market. Taken together, the numbers are a reminder that the stock market is not the economy, and that big national-level data sets may not necessarily reflect financial reality for typical American families, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to meet even small unexpected expenses.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/can-the-worlds-wealthiest-absorb-the-high-end-home-glut-11551830488
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Manhattan, there are around 500 homes asking $10 million and up, and a surfeit of mega-pricey properties is also appearing in Los Angeles and Miami. The growing glut of wildly expensive homes begs the question: Are there enough people who can afford them? Perhaps eventually. Despite a darkening economic outlook globally, a new survey suggests wealth creation will remain constant in 2019. The global population of ultrawealthy individuals—defined as having a net-worth of at least $30 million—is forecast to rise 22% to nearly 250,000 over the next five years, according to a recent report by international real-estate firm Knight Frank. That means an additional 43,000 people will be worth more than $30 million by 2023.)
