Quote: I will never understand how alcohol is legal but pot isn't. I don't use drugs or alcohol at all but do believe the pot should be legal and TAXED like cigarettes.I don't think possession should be procecuted but unregulated production should but no more than unregulated alcohol production. Pot should be taxed and the money used to reduce the tax burdon on home owners. I see no reasonable argument to have pot illegal that couldn't be applied to cigarettes and or alcohol. I also feel many otherwise law abiding people have been sent to prison for it and don't deserve it and many come out criminals who were not before they went in.
+1! That makes my point, why should two cash crops (tobacco and alcohol) be legal and generating revenue when another is prohibited and yet the demand is great enough to generate billions in underground cash flow while sucking the bottom out of the common revenue pool. The liberty of being able to modify your mood in the privacy of your own space ought to trump any societal morality legislation (as long as it doesn't trample on anyone else's rights). Jeez, I'm starting to sound like a libertarian...
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
