Trump OUT-LEFTS Democrats On Legalizing Pot!

Jimmy Dore: Donald Trump has come out with the surprise announcement that he is supporting Amendment 3, a Florida ballot measure that will legalize marijuana use in the state. While most of his fellow Republicans in Florida still oppose the measure, the stance puts Trump to the left of the Harris/Walz campaign on this issue.

Daddy Government Is Afraid Of His Rebellious Children

'I find it bizarre that so many adults are comfortable with others telling them what they can and cannot do.'

Authored by J.B. Shurk: Negotiation is the art of getting an opponent to advocate for your position.  You want one thousand dollars for an old car.  You ask for two.  The buyer works you down to one, and you shake on the “deal.” 

Parents employ similar skills.  A toddler who is unhappy about being put in the stroller might be given a choice: we can either go to the park or take a nap.  Cries often disappear when the alternative to play is less fun.  Of course, children quickly learn this game, too.  Some will double-down on crying until mom throws up her hands and offers to renegotiate: and we can stop for ice cream on the way!  Teenagers realize that either-or offers invite workarounds.  “Do your homework or you’re grounded” succeeds as a negotiating position only if Junior can’t climb out the window after dark.

From an early age, we grasp that successful negotiations take advantage of (1) asymmetric information and (2) asymmetric authority.  Individuals who know more than their opponents and who are capable of restricting the range of available outcomes to any dispute are likely to get what they want.

"These Results Are Alarming": Billions Of People Have Inadequate Micronutrients, Study Estimates

Many diseases worldwide are caused by vitamins and mineral deficiencies.

Authored by Huey Freeman: More than half the world’s population is deficient in micronutrients such as vitamins and minerals, according to a new study.

According to the results, published in Lancet Global Health journal, 99.3 percent of the global population is missing at least one important nutrient.

The study collected data from 31 countries to estimate micronutrient consumption in 185 countries.

Our study is a big step forward,” Chris Free, research professor at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, UC Santa Barbara, and co-lead author, said. “Not only because it is the first to estimate inadequate micronutrient intakes for 34 age-sex groups in nearly every country, but also because it makes these methods and results easily accessible to researchers and practitioners.

Deficiencies in micronutrients harm health and can lead to various preventable health conditions, the researchers say.
