Lawyers should be able to get rich on cases involving potheads with CDLs and Hazardous Material endorsements.

"Not just good.... medicinal."

Ah yes. It reminds me of that "wonder drug" of the early 1900's, Radium.

They'll stone yoo when you're trying to go home. Great time to implement a one-way-bus-fare to Nevada program.

Legal means legal, I guess. What’s the point of even testing for it then?

"They saw this bs coming and now this endangers the random testing policies."

Will they / can they relocate their enterprise?

It's easy to see why manufactures prefer countries like Singapore or Thailand, where drug use can come with draconian consequences.

Yep, especially considering the garbage coming out of our public schools these days.

Some national construction companies will simply not hire in Nevada. Bring in people hired non-stoned or build elsewhere.

Private too. A lot of those families have the disposable income to pay for a drug habit.

How long before someone who has s generally unqualified blames his pot habit for not getting hired, with companies eventually favoring potheads the avoid suits? It has already happened with perverts.

If you were an insurance company, would you insure a company that knowingly hired users?

No,no.no. pot is o worse than tobacco don't you know. Like it's smoke in your body isn't gonna mess up your lungs at all-or you'll be so brain fried you won't notice or care.br> Ignore the fact that pot does things to alter the brain(or why is it used 'medicinally'?)
Got a pilot stoned as hell instead of one smoking tobacco? No effect.How about a school bus driver bringing your kids to school, stoner behind the wheel is FINE,right?Teachers,people cooking your food,surgeons, car repairmen? Shouldn't be a problem,right? Guess they figure Nevada is a retirement state so shouldn't affect most-unless your nursing home is staffed by stoners. Anyway-the casinos will LOVE pot heads gambling.
How STUPID is this ban? As stupid as people who choose to scramble their brain chemistry with DOPE.

That is if insurance companies would even cover them.
