Michigan’s new growth plan: Sacrifices must be made for the environment and team.

Last week Michigan Chief Growth Officer Hilary Doe described immigration as the green line in Michigan’s population story, the one number going up, besides prices, inflation, real estate, groceries, taxes, fees, fees for fees, convience fees, registrations, regulatory fees, utilities, interest rates, school loans, etc, etc, etc.

But A SEMCOG report last year found that 14,012 people aged 64 or younger left Southeast Michigan each year between 2010 and 2019, while 14,737 foreigners arrived annually. It’s 2024. It’s a stunning and brave new world – who cares about 2010-2019.

Statewide, immigration “helps offset our out-migration a little bit,” Doe said.

Doh is right… A little bit? Why are they leaving a climate haven is the question and why all of the sudden are Michigan citizens asked to let strangers into their homes to live.

Yes “sponsor” a family. Let’s start at your house.

 

In 2020, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer created the Office of Global Michigan.

And now that office is asking Michiganders to ignore common sense and serve as sponsors to refugees. Sounds like a win win.

Feds discover new methods to distinguish hemp and marijuana to assist crime labs

Feds discover new methods to distinguish hemp and marijuana to assist crime labs

Federally funded researchers have uncovered two methods to divide and diversify the difference between hemp and cannabis to assist to crime labs. 

Because Cannabis is still a crime and Hemp is not…

The Controlled Substance Act of 1970 classified the plant cannabis, which was historically classified as either marijuana or hemp, as an illegal drug, a Schedule I controlled substance with a high potential for abuse and no FDA-approved medical use in the United States.

For more than 50 years, hundreds of thousands of people were arrested and imprisoned for possessing it.

317,793 Americans are arrested annually for possession of marijuana. Easy Target – Easy Money.

The Farm Bill of 2018 changed this straightforward classification of cannabis. The bill legalized the form of cannabis classified as hemp, while the form classified as marijuana remained illegal.

The task of determining the distinction has been assigned to law enforcement and forensic laboratories, a responsibility that has proven to be challenging, time-consuming, and costly.

Federally funded researchers have made significant advancements in accurately distinguishing between marijuana and hemp by precisely analyzing the THC levels found in flower and edibles.

The National Institute of Justice (NIJ), an entity within the “Justice” Department, is actively promoting the results of two research projects that it funded, both centered around cannabis lab testing. These findings are now being shared exclusively with select law enforcement agencies.

The aim of the initiatives was to streamline the testing process in order to address the increasing crime lab backlogs caused by the federal legalization of hemp with up to 0.3 percent THC under the 2018 Farm Bill.

This legalization has complicated cannabis-related cases, and thus the initiatives were implemented to help resolve these challenges.

Current testing methods are unable to accurately determine the exact amount of THC in a sample, as stated in the recent update by NIJ. However, the researchers they have funded have achieved a significant breakthrough.

Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and direct analysis in real time-high-resolution mass spectrometry (DART-HRMS), they are now able to isolate the THC content, along with other cannabinoids.

This discovery marks a significant advancement in our ability to analyze and understand the composition of cannabis samples.

In the government, everything is go spend more money and if that doesn’t work, it’s go spend more money and if that doesn’t work spend more money and so on and so on.

Trump signed the US Farm Bill into law which legalizes hemp

Trump signed the US Farm Bill into law which legalizes hemp

On Thursday, Trump signed the US Farm Bill into law which legalizes hemp a key source of highly touted wellness ingredient CBD.

American farmers will be able to plant and harvest hemp, a strain of the same plant species from which marijuana originates. The bill passed the House last week in a 369 to 47 vote; it passed the Senate the previous day in an 87 to 13 vote.

The move changes the language of a drug law that had been unchanged for a long time and loosely defined hemp alongside marijuana as a controlled substance.

The new bill exempts hemp from that law and defines it as an agricultural product. That means farmers and researchers of hemp now get some of the same benefits as farmers and researchers of other crops, like the ability to apply for insurance and federal grants.
