Get those kids hooked young, you have an addict for life.
First, exactly like we enforce privacy policies now, which is actually one of the most effective government regulations. The government requires almost not privacy, but it says companies must have privacy policies. The companies it as gone after are for violating their own policy. That would be the model. Companies can discriminate in hiring, handle and source food, however they want. Government just replaces what they have to do now with requirements they have and post policies, then they use their own policies as the bar. What you say, you better do.do you believe that we should have no regulation over any product or service?
One area that I differ from harder core libertarians is that I believe that government requiring reasonable disclosure about the products and services we buy to be a legitimate function of government. So for example, if you go to the supermarket, it's reasonable to require companies to disclose their food handling practices. I would put no requirement what those practices be, only that they be accurately disclosed so consumers can decide for themselves. But no, as long as disclosure is honest, then there should be no restrictions on the products themselves.
Ask yourself, when do you trust a lawyer who's in political office instructing a bureaucrat to make your choices for you more than you trust making your own choices? The correct answer is never, and that's how frequently it should be done.
Another way to do it would be to have a "government approved" label. It would be a crime to put government approved if it is not. That way, if you do trust government, they can still make your choice for you.
interesting POV. my first question, before i respond, would be: how do you enforce your rules?
That's why government can in my view require certain specific policies. If they don't provide a policy or don't answer the specifics they are required to disclose, they haven't followed the law. For other policies, sure, they could be vague. But if you go to Food Lion and and they don't have clear cleanliness policies for meat handling in their deli and Harris Teeter does, isn't that going to influence your shopping choice?that said. if every producer was simply required to disclose, do you not think that some would either evade or disclose so poorly that the poor would eat...well...poorly?
what?
are you for no regulation? of anything? just asking.
Of drugs, no, no regulation. As I said though if you commit crimes on drugs then you are responsible for those crimes. I am good with drug testing for welfare. But government has no business regulating what people do with their own bodies.
again, an interesting POV. so basically, you stand for the proposition that any mind state, altered or not, is legal, so long as you don't commit a crime...is that right?
Is there a lawyer in the house?
My recollection of federal law regarding mary jane is that it is part and parcel of the commerce clause in the Constitution. The purchase or sale is a taxable event requiring a 'Tax Stamp' from the Federal Government (Treasury Department) to be considered a legal transaction. Is there some sort of agreement with the State of Colorado that the Federal Government will not enforce Federal Tax laws on this issue?
Colorado legalized weed for recreational use. This is horrible! One of those deviants said they were going to get a bag and, I quote "watch stupid movies and play video games". These menaces to society must be stopped! They are a danger to us all and snacks everywhere!

Making it legal should make it harder for kids to get thier hands on it (unless thier parents are stoners and let thier kids do it). If the legal supply takes over most of the market, the remaining underage customer base simply isnt big enough to supply enough profit to those who would continue it underground.
That being said, if the legal market is so expensive due to taxation that the underground market still has a large enough of age customer base, then any of the effects I listed above do not happen.
Stoner parents GIVE pot to their five year olds. Stoners poison their own pets with pot. Stoners are stoners, they don't stop being stoners because they have kids. They make sure the kids are stoners too.
And your proof is...? Wait, I forgot: you don't do "proof", kitty. You prefer pulling things from your rectum!
Get a bag, watch stupid movies and hold out their hands for the next welfare check. You can't expect potheads to go without. Greedy rich people who work should support them.
Not everyone who smokes weed, even on a fairly regular basis, is a pothead.
It spans all ages, races, income levels, education levels.

I've seen too much of it, personally. Users deserve a big bullet right between their eyes.

The 1937 Marijuana Tax Act was declared unconstitutional in 1969.
Why did it take a constitutional amendment to outlaw the sale of alcohol? Yet the Federal Government was able to make a back room deal (without consulting the medical profession) and legislate it to illegality.
When Prohibition was introduced, I hoped that it would be widely supported by public opinion and the day would soon come when the evil effects of alcohol would be recognized. I have slowly and reluctantly come to believe that this has not been the result. Instead, drinking has generally increased; the speakeasy has replaced the saloon; a vast army of lawbreakers has appeared; many of our best citizens have openly ignored Prohibition; respect for the law has been greatly lessened; and crime has increased to a level never seen before.
