It's late, so I just skimmed through your posts, so this isn't an all-points post...

But I did notice that MANY said something along the lines of "Well, Crime X blah blah blah, so why don't we legalize that too!?"

Yet every example given is a DANGEROUS, HARMFUL-TO-OTHERS crime.

And Crimson, I actually do consider myself well informed on marijuana's long term and short term effects. I've talked about it with my doctor, and read lots of documentation on it.

I'd also like to thank and congratulate Hydra for his low-blow, lameass attack on how I live my life. Real mature there, champ. If you must know, I smoke to relax, not to hide from the reality of life. It's a personal decision, and I go out of my way to make sure that what I do doesn't interfere with anyone else who doesn't want to be involved. Hydra, I knew you were a dick, but you really need to grow up.

Just to let you know who says it'll be cheaper for weed? Are you serious? add taxes and add the fact that people would rather want weed than, say, cigarettes. Supply + Demand goes up and so does the price. And yes they will get away with probably even a bigger tax increase, because if it is so, as you put it, better than cigarettes - than it's more the reason to of course up the price. Of course I don't know how it works in Canada or other countries, but that's how it'd work in the USA.

If you were to buy a "pack" of pot cigarettes...

Each cigarette would hold about $6 worth of pot, so the street price would be $120. The cost of a pack of un-taxed pot cigarettes, based on what un-taxed tobacco cigarettes would cost, is probably $2.00. So unless the goverment adds a 6000% tax, I don't think beating street prices will be a problem...
