Read the Controversial Issue in American Government on Marijuana. See link below.
Q. Federalism is at issue in an ongoing dispute between the states and the Federal Government over the legalization of marijuana. California voters, as well as voters in a number of other states, have approved laws and ballot initiatives permitting doctors to prescribe marijuana to relieve pain and other ailments.
Also, in a policy change during 2009, which was reaffirmed in 2012 and 2013, the US Department of Justice announced that it no longer would prosecute the use of marijuana if used for medical purposes, even though Federal law prohibits its use. A number of states also have approved legislation to decriminalize or legalize marijuana.
A. Should the states have authority to create medical exceptions to the federal ban on marijuana?
B.
C. More generally, should the federal government legalize marijuana?
Marijuana — Should Federal controls over marijuana be liberalized and brought in line with recent changes in state laws?

Discussion – Techniques and Tools for Managing the Data [Pin It] Assignment 1: Discussion—Techniques and Tools for Managing the Data You have explored many options for managing data as well as its importance to the overall health of an organization in making well-informed decisions. Many organizations feel that they have to utilize powerful and expensive solutions, but there are also cheaper alternatives. For example, MS Excel can be a great tool to manage data and identify answers to any questions. Thus, whether your organization is big or small, all the tools need to be evaluated to determine the one that will work best, not only in managing the data but also in lowering the overall cost. Managing cost is important, as you do not want to implement a solution that will bankrupt the organization; that, in itself, is an ill-informed decision. Using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet, research tools and techniques of managing data. Respond to the following: What would be some of the mistakes or consequences of not investigating the costs associated with the organization’s information systems (data collection) choice? Besides going bankrupt, what other effects could it have on the organization? Could it lead to bad decision making? Explain. What systems does your organization utilize, either as a whole or per department? Is this solution effective? Why or why not? Is there a solution that would be more effective? If not, explain why. With the various solutions available today, which one do you think would work best for you? Meaning, which of these solutions (such as MS Excel or a decision-support system) would work best on the following criteria: Ease of use Interpretation of data Sharing of data Often, we think of business analytics as only for businesses. However, can any of these tools be used for personal decision making? Provide some examples of how you could utilize these tools. Write your initial response in 300–500 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
