Surely 'the market' has clearly said Cannabis is a product the public want and will produce and acquire regardless of government interference. The world is changing yet we are a country run by dinosuars Australia needs a breath of fresh air and we may actually see some change for the good that the people want.

Inside George Pell's trial: The victim's words, the lawyers' argumentsAs the trial unfolded, Pell sat in the dock usually writing on a legal pad, dressed in a black jacket and clerical collar. Sometimes he wore a jumper bearing the logo of the MCG. The Catholic church does not follow Scripture - a Pastor should be married.
