The only reason I feel it should be legalized is the money that the government can make from it...The US can make a major attempt to get out of their (what was it?) 6 trillion dollar deficit? or whatever it is currently.

That's just my opinion after hearing on the radio that some border patrol agents confescated about $600,000 worth of marajuana in the desert here...

You don't care about individual liberty... just the tax revenue... nice.


I'm wishy-washy. I'm for it being legalized because of the tax revenue. I'm against it because it would be abused... Example: Alcohol.

Who cares if it's abused? It's not your (or my) choice to tell others how to moderate their usage of any substance, drug or otherwise. As long as their usage doesn't impede on the rights of others, it should not be regulated. Should we start telling people how much food they can eat, too? How much they can be outside? How much tobacco they're allowed to smoke? People die from cancer and heart disease (brought on by obesity) more than they do from alcohol.

Besides, alcoholism was WORSE during Prohibition. The same principle should be applied to this War on Drugs. Drugs are more dangerous when you can't go to a reliable source because anybody who deals illegally probably isn't as trustworthy as your neighborhood pharmacy.


whoa.
