The problem is that this is not seen in the context of quid pro quo. Why should we give the left anything at all?

We ought to do the right thing, whether it makes the left happy, or apopleptic.

I think marijuana use would increase some, if it were legalized, and that would be a bad thing. The public policy question is "does preventing that increase in marijuana use justify the (marijuana component of) war on drugs?

I'm not prepared, today, to answer that question "No", but I think that the question should be answered at the state level.

“We ought to do the right thing, whether it makes the left happy, or apopleptic.”

Absolutely! But the “right” thing to do is not to jack up everyone’s taxes so that a relatively small portion of the population can have a legalized fix.
