Well other added in the harder drugs....so I had to have a little fun with it. I still dont think dope's a good idea, it still gives you a mind altering substance that you lose motor skills while on it, I just think trafic accidents would be even worse.
To me I think they should get rid of the income tax and replace it with a sales tax and that way if you buy stuff with drug money (and they will) we'll get the tax money, the other thing is I wouldnt raid it, but I would fine people with it and only like a seatbelt......if you're smoking it in a car, I'd treat it like a DUI. So we'd still discourage the use and we wouldnt have to raid people over it. Your're smoking it at home so what, but not in public, I dont need a contact buzz.
Yea, I think DUIs would be applied to weed the same way it is currently applied to alcohol. I think there's a blood test they can do to see whether or not TCH is currently active in the body.
Perhaps there may be an increase in traffic accidents (for the sake of the convo), but I still think the costs of prohibition far, far outweigh the benefits.
Just think of all the millions of young lives that are irreparably harmed by going to jail just for smoking and selling this substance (ie folks who have no other criminal record).
Think of the cops and courts that would have more time to focus on murderers and rapists instead of the mountains of paperwork around marijuana. That saves lives.
Also, think of the reduction of power legalization would mean for the cartels (which ultimately means less $ to buy guns, maintain a large network, ect). Just like at the end of alcohol prohibition, we will see a reduction in violence and again, lives will be saved.
Not disagreeing with you on the traffic thing, just saying that preventing that probably isn't worth all of the other costs. Ya know?
