It's a great win for free markets. The FDA has approved the first drug to treat seizures using CBD oil.

But the real news is what comes next. With the approval, the FDA has admitted that marijuana has some medical uses. That means the DEA will have to reclassify marijuana as something other than a schedule 1 drug allowing it to be more widely prescribed for a variety of uses. HAZA!!

If you've been listening to the show for a few years you might remember a story we covered in 2014 about a UN envoy to Detroit who claimed water was a "fundamental human right".

You can imagine my reaction and we spent the better part of half the show discussing how ridiculous an idea that was.

Fast forward to today. Venezuela is now facing major water shortages due to government failures. It's a heartbreaking story that should act as a wakeup call to America. I doubt it will.
