In this episode: Part 3 of 7 in a conversation with J Mac from Canada
Banking, cannabis, and election reform in the U.S.
Who killed the electric car (great documentary, link below)
The conversation centers around the idea of opening up a bank specifically for the marijuana industry. Currently, marijuana is not federally legal, so businesses in the industry are unable to store their money in a bank. This is leading to an economy where businesses are losing out to larger corporations, who have more resources to invest and compete. The idea of a state-insured bank was brought up to facilitate the movement of money in the marijuana industry. Additionally, the amount of money being withheld from the economy is discussed and the potential impact of this money if it was able to be utilized. Finally, a reference is made to a book by an entrepreneur who developed an algorithm for Google and was bought out by the company in 2002. The conversation discusses how China has been able to gain an advantage over the U.S. in terms of unity, surveillance, and long-term planning. The participants then move on to the topic of voting, discussing how paper ballots should be used, along with proper election oversight, security, and training for volunteers. They also suggest that the government should invest in providing good jobs related to election security, and that national time off should be given to allow people to vote. In conclusion, it is suggested that voting should be made into something that people can be proud of. #China #capitalism #banking #elections #AATWD #DaveSmith
