Once again, Alabama residents have proven they are not capable of making good decisions.

Thank goodness the government of Alabama rushed in to save us all from the "bad things" in the world. As the only state with citizens who have no idea how to do anything, the lawmakers of Alabama can be trusted to save us all.

Most of the time, Alabama lawmakers seek to protect us from anything that can be considered "sinful".

Gambling is a great example. As a confirmed sin (even though I can't find many Bible verses pointing this out), the leaders of our great state have made sure that we can NOT play the lottery or enjoy a leisurely evening at a casino (aka "den of sin").

Now, the people of Alabama must be protected from the sinful substance known as CBD.

In particular, any product sold with Delta-8, Delta-9, and Delta-10. The "Deltas" are the best-selling CBD products by a mile.

Alabama republican Andy Whitt was the first to step up and shield us from this evil known as CBD. Whitt claims he's doing it for all the "children" of Alabama.

Whitt led the charge to get a bill passed that Governor Kay Ivey can sign into law any day now.

It comes with a side benefit for the state in the form of a 10% tax on all CBD products. Of course, lawmakers aren't taking CBD away from us to make more money.

They only care about our children, and the extra money is just a little "tip" for being such "do-gooders".

If you use CBD products for pain, anxiety, restless leg syndrome, or any other issue, you are about to be out of luck.

However, Alabama lawmakers know more than you and this is for your own good. Sure, you might have to go back to being in excruciating pain and never sleeping again, but it's all for the best.

Don't you realize this is for the "children" of Alabama?

To all the small business owners in Alabama selling CBD products, you'll need to find something to sell that isn't a sinful substance.

You'll feel better about yourself even if you lose your home, car, and everything you own.

On the bright side, you aren't selling evil and hurting children.

Aren't you glad you live in a state with leaders who keep you from doing things that are bad? What would we do if we lived in a state like Colorado, Alaska, Montana, or Idaho?

We would be forced to think and make decisions for ourselves completely on our own with NO government interference.

That sounds awful.
