(FROM THE ARTICLE: Marijuana produced today is much more potent than the varieties smoked in the 1960s and 1970s, said Republican state Rep. Tom Morrison of Palatine, who supports Moylan’s resolution. “I’m concerned about the exposure to children because it’s not just about smoking marijuana,” Morrison said. Marijuana “edibles are very prevalent — gummy bears, cookies, lollipops — children are attracted to these,” he said, referencing shops in states where marijuana is legal.)

Because of that lack of protection, a) my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980; b) my Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974; and c) my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
