Honestly you're making my point. We (as in civilization) tried criminalization, and it is more expensive (and has other added downsides) compared with decriminalization/legalization + taxation and treatment. How do I propose to

The point others are making is that it appears to be a zero-sum game, i.e., we're paying one way or the other, so the more compassionate option with better outcomes should win out. As I have seen it stated, the options appear to be to

IANYL. Just because we haven't seen them doesn't mean there is a market (e.g., b2b) where they may be using them. Also, in this particular instance, since these are registered we can look at what they have provided the USPTO as ev

Kottke, as an often self-reflective writer, is likely to know much more about his internal mental state than you do. That's my point. So it's not so much that I am assuming he has perfect self-reflection as it is that your wi

IANYL - This is not legal advice. As you may be aware, a counter-notice that meets the statutory requirements will result in reinstatement unless Meta sues over it. So the question isn't so much whether your counter-notice covers al
