  A lot of people here are wondering if we stole this video and thumbnail from &quot;meld&quot;. Of course we didn&apos;t. <br>They stole our original (German speaking) video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFbD6QKNj4s">https://youtu.be/cFbD6QKNj4s?si=ra6YrYrIKo0q0gaN</a><br>They also stole our thumbnail (from a fern video): <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyQ7z8BMwwk">https://youtu.be/WyQ7z8BMwwk?si=T0bNfUfFHx5gq6qc</a><br>Their voice over is a pitched up AI version of ours. So stolen as well. <br>We just took the liberty to make clear who actually researched, ideated and animated this content. Also since our original German video there have been interesting developments in the case (which meld missed, as they simply stole our old video).

  These scams are so complex that at a certain point they could&apos;ve just made more money if they put that energy into a real company

  One of the best things about this channel is that, when a story borrows heavily from existing investigative journalism, it&apos;s credited FIRST, by name, with links and all that. Not just a little citation, not just at the end, but first and foremost.

  We legalized marijuana several years ago in Canada. Everybody who invested in the industry lost money because they overestimated what sales would be by a huge huge margin and seemed to forget that the black market was still there and people who wanted pot could get it for significantly less than what the government was charging. There was no conspiracy or somebody behind the scenes pulling the strings. It was simply a lesson in supply and demand.

  They sent 400 cops and only arrested 9 people? That level of inefficiency should be considered ungodly
