I don't think the states should regulate vegetable gardens either.
I disagree with any taxation on marijuana. The state governments should not be allowed to become the drug cartels either.
Prohibit any taxation on marijuana, take the money out of it and the problem goes away.
If you smoke it, you get stupid; the more smarts you have to donate to the cause, the stupider you get. Under what authority does Congress have to outlaw that which may make stupid? If its the General Welfare clause of the Preamble, then alchohol should be abolished w/out delay. Also Maryja Wowwa saps motivation; the more you have, the more of it that you're robbed. It gives one the munchies and it makes one laugh. Many chemo patients say that its Godsent (and I've heard tell by many females who relish its affects on a monthly basis). Its known as The Curse for a reason. But I gather it 'helps'.
It is called a gateway drug for a reason; you smoke some Mary Jane and the next day you'll be huffing gasoline fumes. Then you'll be moving right up that chain into the realm of Pamprin w/shots of JC.
You know the most curious thing? EVERYTHING is done under the ostensible purvue of General Welfare. How is aborting innocent little babies General? It sounds pretty damn specific welfare to me; particularly with respect to the mother who views a growing fetus as a lump of tissue that can be excised at will because its inconvieniant. That, and the fathers who just can't be bothered to be Dad's.
Why stop there, its General Welfare to abort in the 45th year of trimesters; you're becoming extremely inconvieniant. Its MY General Welfare at stake here.
I believe its in the interest of the General Welfare to allow whomever so desire to get their load on and be happy. But if you make me unhappy with your paranoid meth-head delusion antics, I'll terminate your habit with extreme predjudice (double-tap with an exclamation mark).
WHY don't these libtards go through the same motions as with anything else: tax the crap out of it? Then they can arrest individuals for income tax evasion (and they'll truly be criminals in every sense of the word).
Furthermore, they could ruthlessly enforce the Food and Drug Purity Act on the drugs. You either incorporate so that means for legal redress is available, or you go to jail for selling junk.
