do you have some data that empirically proves it will waste more money than we already do? /just curious

Just as much as you have proving it will save money. The fact is all it will do is give political types more money to waste from the taxes. If they can not waste it in the war on drugs, they will waste it on something else and having more, will waste more.

Sorry I don't drink either. :D

Seriously I get bored with this stuff at times. It is always the same ole, same ole. "We need to legalize drugs to help some people medically, but while we are at it I should would like to get stoned without any risk from the police." Then they trot out several "studies" on how it would save money, restore your rights, get rid of the drug cartels, unclog the court system, make your wife a virgin again, and leave your toilet fresh and clean. Of course the "studies" are always by pro-druggies. At the same time they blow off any study that does not agree with their stance as propaganda.

It gets old but I still pop in every now and then to remind them that not everyone agrees with them. It causes major butthurt. :D :D

:woot: HEY YOU!! How's it going!! (Yes, shameless hijack here! :D) :bighug: Hope you are doing well! I miss your posts!! :heart:

Doing good BB! Just doing the music thing, teaching guitar and production, about to go out to Sacramento for a Contract and work for a few months...Oh the medical Cannabis is a beautiful thing, I have been able to remove Corticosteroids medication for my Crohn's and just use a natural plant, actually gained 20 lbs (when your 28, 6'2"and 140 lbs it matters)

On top of that, have a development deal in the works with a smaller record label, if they will give me what I want I might get to call myself a "paid" musician. Amazing what I can do without a succubus holding me back, trying to make me provide what she wants out of life.

Gee not a single comment about the AMA saying that pot is dangerous and should stay illegal?

The AMA's policy, edited to illustrate the essential argument:
“(1) ________ is a dangerous _____ and as such is a public _________ concern; (2) sale of _________ should not be legal(ized).”
"I'ts dangerous, therefore it's a public concern, therefore people should be threatened with force for it."

Sounds very familiar to me. Since you seem to agree with this statement Rick, let me ask you, how is this sort of reasoning compatible with a free society?

Are drugs sui generis, or are there other things you apply this same line of reasoning to as well?
