I agree. I'm as conservative as they come, and I don't drink at all or use any drugs other than tylenol, but the fact that pot is illegal is idiotic and a waste of resources.
The tax revenue on legalized pot would be huge, even if the tax was one-tenth the percentage on tobacco (the highest taxed product of all time percentage-wise, I believe around 1000-2000%). Plus, there would be a reduction in crime and less non-violents in prison. AND the DEA could focus on the really 'evil' drugs like cocaine!
PS- My drugs are caffeine(thrice daily), nicotine(hourly - ouch!), sometimes alcohol(rarely) and an occasional aspirin(very rarely). I don't consider pot a drug and I don't do tylenol. LOL
