  1. Cause the rich ‘publicans haven’t gotten their brains wrapped around pot yet They don’t want outside Demo Commies taking control. I do agree Springer with SB 30 Its like raising and lower the Stars and Stripes every time a dogcatcher passes

  2. What with the efforts to promote Medicaid expansion, I think there should be a bill requiring vaccinations (ALL of them, everything the CDC recommends for whatever age group a person falls in) for everybody enrolled in Medicaid.
    If the taxpayers have to pay your medical bills, you should have to get every single vaccination there is.
    Just reading this in committee and sending it to the 41st day will provide a year’s worth of grist for the rumor mill, as social media will do the rest, spreading conspiracy theories that Medicaid enrollees are targeted for experimentation, sterilization, and termination.
    It’ll be fun.

  3. What a list full of time wasted, you have Fred Duetch trying to lead the rebellion against the majority of the state and their freedom to choose what to put in their body.

  4. Seeking Solutions to Problems that do not exist will be the repeating theme for the 2022 SD Legislative session. Led once again with a creepy fixation with kids genitals.

  5. The anti-cannabis bill (no home grow) will cause fighting with the SD cannabis community for the next decade.

    Adult use of fine, but we need to be saving struggling poor families money by allowing them to garden.,

    We have a serious big government problem in SD when a proven and natural safe therapeutic that can be grown for pennies is sold for hundreds of dollars per ounce because of a state-sponsored monopoly.

    Who the heck are these communo-fascists who keep attacking cannabis families?

  6. .. and perverting the free market for cannabis?

    By freeing the cannabis economy, that money will go toward utilities, restaurants, SAVINGS ACCOUNTS, debt, childcare.

    Seriously .. and I mean this in as nice a way as possible including my own representatives – what they hell are you idiots doing?

    Why are you not creating fundamentally sound economies for hard working products like the cannabis plant and computer software that don’t require a government monopoly?

    1. Have you considered moving to Oregon like Portland? They legalized all drugs there. It would be a good fit since everything is going splendid.

  7. Fred can take his “clean up bills” and shove em where the sun don’t shine. We voted on and passed what what we voted on and passed. We don’t need your personal opinions inserted into every bill!

  8. I love the outrage on the SB30, its like a bathroom bill. It means nothing, yet all your attention goes there.
