I had read an article a couple days ago in regards to marijuana legalization. Recently, the neighboring island of Guam has legalized marijuana for much needed funds but what has Saipan done? Nothing, wala, or in the native tongues, taya or esor.<\/p>\n

I don’t think looking to the sick will answer our problems.<\/p>\n
