Poll: Marijuana Law Reform

[RickN]

Oh do tell, what would it hurt?

Legalize drugs except in extreme medical cases and,

1) There will be more people on welfare because they can not hold a job.
2) There will be more people killed and injured by impaired drivers.
3) The drug cartels are not going to just throw up their hands and walk away. They will just import more hard drugs.
4) Are any of you REALLY dumb enough to think the tax money will be used for anything worthwhile?

That's some serious speculations.

In surprised nobody has really brought up hemp. That alone will do a lot of good for our country again.

They bring up hemp a lot in these threads and it is even more speculation. For the record and before I forget again, Marijuana and industrial hemp are different. They are related but not the same plant, in fact industrial hemp should be legalized again.

How about do away with welfare, too?
Unless one assumes that Joe Citizen needs good folks with authority to make sure he gets fed, gets a good government indoctrination, is prevented from watching certain things, eating or drinking certain things, ingesting certain chemicals, wears his seatbelt, and doesn't use too much water flushing the john.
I'm sure glad I have someone helping me with those decisions, I doubt I could get by without someone else showing me the way.

You sound as if you believe these things aren't already happening.

Who cares what the tax money will be used for, it's a voluntary tax, besides, most users would grow their own.

Yeah, and this represents extreme conservatives.

Strangely enough, I am beginning to believe your last sentence.

We have a lot of Libertarians and a few liberals.

Yes they are happening but why make it worse, or do you not give a crap about anything but what makes you feel good?
As for the tax, more money for the NSA anyone?

Meh, I'm not too worried about it, the pro-decriminalize group has time on their side. We're really just waiting for the antis to die off. My guess, 10-20 years at the most, before it's decriminalized.

That I agree with, provided of course our young people do not get any wiser as they age.
