well technically a 10 dollar tax is more bearable than a criminal record$10 tax
I still can't see why people would leave their dealer to voluntarily pay a tax. The only way I would pay at a shop is if I couldn't reach my man
Marijuana is now being sold in stores for recreational use in Colorado...

you haven't made one argument as to why marijuana should be illegal. all you say is that it "alters" to your state. so does caffeine. caffeine is also physically addictive.
You're a dumbass with no understanding of biochemistry.
caffeine and weed aren't even the same drugs.
thats like comparing morphine to adderall.
Are you in support of banning alcohol too???
Weed is even less harmless than alcohol.
I don't play the alcohol/weed game because I neither drink nor smoke.
If I had to build a society from scratch I will ban both.
Bans don't work dummy.
you can't put toothpaste back in the tube.
Allowing drug use, some of which aren't even that bad in moderation, INCLUDING WEED, is far....FAR more preferable than burdening society with the ills of black markets, violence, and other illicit activities that are avoided when governments smarten up and regulate these things.
You have to learn to accept policies that don't just account for you, but the REST of society.
I can count the number of times i've smoked on my hand, but that says NOTHING about what I thin others should do with themselves.
try to ban natural human behavior, brehs.
provide no reasoning as to why you would ban something other than the fact that you don't do them, brehs.
@Chris.B probably doesn't even know that weed was legal back in the 30s up until Nixon banned the shyt because of its competition with other plant fibers and industry wanting to control the market.
Weed has been demonized by very specific marketing campaigns.
I suggest everyone watch this movie and learn about this situation came to be.
i don't think he gives two fukks about any of that. he's your generic puritanical evangelical christian. Anything altering your natural state is bad to him and no one should be allowed to do it, although I'm sure he does caffeine and other drugs that alter you. he fails to realize that making something illegal or "banning it" does absolutely nothing to curtail use rates.
will the stoners and the druggies take a pill which offered the same benefits as weed if it was created?
that's impossible. it's impossible to recreate a plant in pill form. You can isolate certain aspects of the plant but that's it. Look, humans have been altering their mind for as long as there has been recorded history. People were using marijuana as a religious sacrament thousands of years ago. There is nothing wrong with adults who choose to enjoy marijuana. We get it, you're so AWESOME that you don't have to drink or smoke weed, but that does not mean other humans shouldn't be able to as well. Just because you don't drink or smoke doesn't mean that everyone who does is wrong. Believe it or not, there are responsible forms of alcohol and marijuana use. Alcohol is magnitudes more dangerous though for a huge plethora of reasons, and in my opinion they aren't even comparable. Instead of banning things and making things illegal we need to educate our citizens about substances and then they will make a well informed decision of what to and what not to do. For a conservative you seem really opposed to freedom, friend.

They need to hire ex-military commandos as defense contractors until they can move away from being cash only businesses. Such a lucrative market...This is the wild west of entrepreneurship right now. Fertile ground. Uncharted territory. Makes me feel "cac"-ish to think about the exploitations possible.
