Marcha da Maconha reúne 500 manifestantes em Florianópolis.
- Google translation:

Hundreds of people attended the Marijuana March this Saturday afternoon in Florianópolis (SC). According to the calculations of the Municipal Guard, about 500 protesters participated in the act promoted in the busiest street of the capital of Santa Catarina, the Beira Mar Norte.

The group met during the afternoon in a warehouse and soon after went on walking for about 4 km. The representatives of the Office of Cannabis, the organization formed by students of the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, advocated the decriminalization of drugs and cited the use of marijuana for the production of goods such as clothing and medicines.

During the march, protesters carried banners and placards with slogans like "Legalize Peace" and "Who does not buy the plant." Across the way, they sang and asked that the President Rousseff (PT) legalize marijuana. Unlike São Paulo, where there was military confrontation with police last week, the demonstration was peaceful in Florianopolis and received support from many motorists who passed through the city center.

Among the participants of the Marijuana March, was the chief of the Civil Police of Rio de Janeiro, Orlando Zaccone. He, which integrates an international movement of "lawmen" who support the decriminalization of the herb, said the prosecution would not be enough to stop drug trafficking.

"Despite the repression, more and more drugs are offered to society. This policy has not solved the problem," he said. "Violence is not produced by the drug but by the ban. Legalization is the real control, the ban is total disarray."

The Marijuana March in Florianopolis was the subject of much controversy and was only made after a court authorization of Santa Catarina. State Representative Ismael Santos (DEM), tried to prevent the realization of the act and asked for an injunction. Judge Maria Paula Kern rejected the request of the parliament last Thursday.

Canada spent 11.2 percent of its GDP for total healthcare costs in 2022. US spent 16.6 percent in 2022. The difference is 5.4% of GDP. Which is $1.5 trillion dollars in 2022 in the US. See Wikipedia: Canadian universal healthcare.

Canada vs US GOP[edit source]

Return to top. Canada has legal recreational and medical cannabis across Canada. Republicans (GOP) block both in US. In Canada the average per-person cost of their single-payer universal healthcare is half that of the US. And Canada has a longer average lifespan. As for the US read a UnitedHealthcare denial horror story. Stats article: "The company dismissed about one in every three claims in 2023 — the most of any major insurer. That's twice the industry average of 16%". See Wikipedia: Medical debt. It's much higher in the US. US Republicans Voted Often to Kill Coverage of Pre-Existing Conditions. [21][22][23].

Eventually people may realize that voting for Democrats is the only way to raise state and federal minimum wages from $7.25 to at least $15 an hour, regain abortion rights, get expanded Medicaid in the South, and flip the Trump tax cuts for the rich (2) back to progressive taxation.
