The concept does challenge our cultural assumptions...and poses interesting questions.Six pages in, and not a credible link to be found.
Legalization would decrease the price, as you are currently paying people to risk death/imprisonment to get the stuff to you. Odds are, any (reasonable) tax the government levies will be less than the cost of the smuggling.
Not to mention, with legalization, you will reap the benefits of mass-production. I'm sure Phillip Morris could modify their factories to produce uniform marijuana cigarettes easily enough.
I would rather not have Phillip Morris anywhere near my pot.
So can most of the psychiatric drugs we give to our mentally ill...I can show you research that links pot to mental illnesses such as paranoia. Just sayin'.
*Considers the possibility of the link between pot -> mental illness ->supporting Obama. Hmmmm.*

smoke one marijuana cigarette and you've done the damage of 1 package of cigarettes.. not to mention loss of brain cells.. most democwats suffer from this..
Show me one person who has gotten lung cancer from smoking pot

Nobody (I see) is suggesting that the government subsidize pot, but rather I think it is useless to hunt down users as though they were felons.So can most of the psychiatric drugs we give to our mentally ill...I can show you research that links pot to mental illnesses such as paranoia. Just sayin'.

But they are already mentally ill.
EU research is providing evidence of the link between pot and mental illness. While I have no actual problem with people choosing to fuck themselves, I'm not convinced the government should legitimize it.

I could easily kill myself with this bottle of vodka, right now. At one point in US History, and in most of the Middle East, owning this bottle makes me a felon.
If I have the right to drink my liver and brain to death, why shouldn't I have the right to smoke it to death, as well?
That's not an argument against legalization...that's an argument against socialized medicine.Nobody (I see) is suggesting that the government subsidize pot, but rather I think it is useless to hunt down users as though they were felons.But they are already mentally ill.

I didn't say anyone was, I said 'legitimize' not 'subsidize'. Personally, I don't have a problem with anyone killing themselves - it is only when what they do impacts on me - as a person (ie the amount of people who support their drug habit through crime, accidents, etc) that I have an issue. You are certainly welcome to put whatever crap you want into your body. Just don't expect me to:
a. pay for any medical treatment - through whatever 'single payer' system we end up with.
b. allow your stupidity to impact on me in any way, means, shape or form.
In return, I will ask for or expect no help from you.
See how that works?
I would be more inclined towards decriminalization IF I was certain we would not eventually have a single payer medical system. Since, that is what we will end up with, forget about legalization - I ain't paying for no one's self inflicted medical problems.
I've been a stoner on-and-off since 1965.
I have lived in some very marginal places and know some pretty disreputable types.
I have never seen or bought hemp that was "laced" with a damned thing.
Another Urban legend brought to us thanks to the propaganda war on sanity, folks.
Legalize it, then ignore it.
Tax it commercially, if you insist, but give people the right to grow their own without facing tax consequences for doing so
The street value of marijuania will drop like a stone and that is as it should be.
After all it is nothing but an herb.
And when it is legalized, fewer and fewer kids will get involved with it, too. The social cache of using it will be gone from it.
And that WOULD be a good thing, I think.
Kids, being kids, are going to show up in school stoned, regardless of it legality, however.
Andspeaking as somebody who was a classroon teacher, stoned kids don't make good students.
Amusing perhaps, and easiler to deal with certainly, but not easily taught.

You can't have legal MaryJane and an empire too.MJ is a pacifists drug.
You need meth and crack to keep the kids violent and signing up to go kill "evil" people.
Funny. You can give a kid a 50 cal machine gun and send him to go destroy "evil" but the poor, dumb bastard cant "legally" buy a bottle of Scotch.
What a fucking country.
Wow, guess I'll stick with alcohol.smoke one marijuana cigarette and you've done the damage of 1 package of cigarettes.. not to mention loss of brain cells
My guess is two-fold.I don't know why Republicans are against Marijuana
I agree, let's ban alcohol and cigarettes!forget about legalization - I ain't paying for no one's self inflicted medical problems.
You shouldn't be afraid of fun and relaxation.I have never used, nor intend to use, pot.
