So Walker88 earns over $400,000 per year? I want to be his best friend.

And you believe they won't come after anyone earning less than 400,000? Fun fact: most audits are on people who earn less than 25,000 at least according to the IRS factbook.

The other unstated reason for decriminalisation was to reduce the prison population after a highly negative report from the US on Thai prison overcrowding. It's one very good reason they won't reverse it.

Very few actually need it for medical purposes.  It is a non productive brain dead producing drug.

Rich folks aren't successful being in this state of high, unless you were one of the Beatles.  Low money Backpackers, digital nomads and skate boarder types love it.

Are you are doctor? I had awful sinus problems and I tried every pill and spray the doctors gave me but nothing worked. As a last resort I tried medical cannabis and now it's gone. Btw just about every silicon valley multi millionaire smokes it. It is known to enhance creativity.

Thailand and Russia are negotiating to implement MIR payment system that will help Thailand get precious rubles from tourists that Thailand can use to pay for cheap oil. There is also an agreement between these countries to increase mutual trade 10x. Thailand will export to Russia much more than it does now to acquire rubles it will need to pay for energy.

Or it can pay in Thai baht. Only countries that are sanctioning Russia have to pay in Rubles.

India, china and Indonesia do so why not thailand so they can be as competitive its what the germans have being doing all along

Sanctions on oil and gas are hurting the west because they where brought off by gas prom especially the germans who cosied up to russia

I support Ukraine but the longer the war goes on russia is winning.

The barbarity and genocide of the russian invasion needs protection from NATO a no fly zone they are fighting multiple countries inc belarussia and chechnya.

The bombing of the shopping mall had to be a red line it was terrorism not war.

High five bar in soi chychipun in pattaya is russian owned not busy anymore as the word is out

Think of how much worse the shopping mall death toll would have been if it hadn't been closed down in 2014. There might have been people killed in there instead of in the arms depot next door.

This will ultimately be a disaster for Thai people.

 

Young Thais will learn that it is cheaper to get high than to get drunk – prices will come down quite quickly when local black markets start to emerge since now anyone can get plants.

 

I tried driving high once and it was much harder than trying to drive drunk.  Busy, crowded Thai roads will become constant motorcycle ambulatory emergencies.  Sukhumvit will become a road of sorrow.

 

 

We're doomed I tell ye

Again, the tiresome, trite false equivalency.

 

Weed-head logic says remove weed insert demon alcohol and flip the argument. Trouble is it's not true.

 

Moreover, while people can and do drink too much alcohol is far easier to gauge it's affects. A few tokes of high grade ganja and it's over for the very casual user.

 

Of course, pot heads rarely suffer from the issues I had described because of the immunity built up. In fact, users need stronger and stronger weed just to get high.

 

Pot heads never amount to anything in life. That's just a fact and the few that have are merely exceptions that prove the rule.

 

Comparing to alcoholics lol. Why not heroin addicts? The topic is ganja.

 

Not debating which type of addict is best to be. You must be high.

Initially, it's quite funny reading old soaks opining from their bar stools, but it does get boring very quickly.

I worked in Silicon Valley back in the 70s/80s and everyone smoked weed. One designer told me that without weed we wouldn't have had microprocessors.

My advise to you is to avoid weed if you don't like it.

Lazada has removed all cannabis products today inc seeds, cbd, tea etc.

Between the communist Red Terror killing off 25-30 million of their own citizens, and Putin's aggressions and oligarchy, Russia is making a strong point that it's too big for the global good. Russia's GDP is the same as Spain; if it wasn't for oil and metals, Russia would have been left behind. They were given the same gift of German scientists at the end of ww2, but all they can show for it is atomic warheads and weapons. Opportunities squandered.

 

The US isn't trying to break up Russia tho. One reason is their atomic warheads ending up on the black market. Another reason, the US needs a nemesis for weapons proliferation and it can't be with our trading partner, China.

Lol.

As a foreigner in Thailand, I can only repeat my mantra: Stay Away From Narcotics. Just do.

...and loose women and tuk-tuks and motorcycle taxis and those upstairs bars in Patpong and avoid drinking the water. Best not come eh?

Btw narcotics include any drug that reduces pain or induces sleep
