    but still they promised us.

    Yeah and the Boxer in that fight last night promised me an exiting fight, but then dropped K.O. in the first round.

    You can make the campaign promise to try to legalize Marihuana. You can actually mean it with all your might and will. But all your plans will still annihilate on first contact with reality, and what you do then is what counts. When you then try every possible idea to get closer to your goal, you are doing exactly what you promised to do: try your best to achieve your goal.

    That’s what this government is doing, and I respect them for that. I count that as a promise kept because they really put in the work to get us as close to legalization as possible.

      Yeah I know politicians lie to get votes, it was just such a big talking point for young people who only voted for them because the were going to do that, but now they don’t.

      I’m still happy at least something is happening and they don’t just pretend that they never promised something like that.
