Failing to compete for labor isn’t the fault of the people smarter than you.

Pot is less addictive than the legal drug alcohol.

Actually not true, from my research about 10% of dopers and people who drink get addicted.

I'd like to see the details of your research. Here's what I have seen: "15.4% of the alcohol drinkers had developed alcohol dependence [...] 9.1% of the users had developed cannabis dependence" - J.C. Anthony, L.A. Warner, R.C. Kessler. 1994. Comparative epidemiology of dependence on tobacco, alcohol, controlled substances, and inhalants: Basic findings from the National Comorbidity Survey. Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology 2:244-268

MJ is addictive

Which is why I said "less".

Dopers believe what they want to believe.

“Dopers believe what they want to believe.”

All humans believe what they want to believe. They always have & they always will.

Yes, and they will have to live what we’re living to understand. I hope it does not happen to them, it is life changing

On weekends I fast. Well, a mini-fast, actually.

That is, I go as long as possible without eating, and drink only water and maybe a little black coffee.

I maybe make it to 2pm before I break down and eat.

Cannabis is an integral part of my fasting. No, I does not make me eat an entire cheesecake.

Glad cannabis helps you.

So why don’t restaurant owners just pay a little more? Quite simply, the marijuana industry can generally afford to pay workers at various levels much higher wages, they argue.

If you can't pay competitive wages then go out of business.
