What I don't get is why you think that if drug are legalized, they suddenly are only allowed to be grown/made/sold by the government...
You'd see the cartels simply create a corporation and brand name, then sell the same stuff they already are currently selling, but with a slick, shiny new label on it. That, and because it's sidewalk vendors (pushers) have high overhead costs, you'd see them go out of business when the mass-market outlets like gas-stations, Wal-Mart, liquor stores, etc undercut their prices.
After all, what druggie would pay $300/ounce for pot from the sidewalk pusher if Wal-Mart sold it for $5-10 a pack?
“sidewalk vendors (pushers) have high overhead costs”
I seriously wonder why I even bother posting.
All i get is bashing because i was a cop.
Not to mention crap like this that shows the complete lack of knowledge on subjects while you bash me.
it’s a joke.
Overhead? They work out of condemned buildings, they cut with baking soda. they add PCP to weed because it is cheaper than giving people pure weed.
This is a joke. (not you specifically - but the mind set of people who call themselves libertarians.)
I got one idiot attacking me for god knows what reason, trying to suck me into second amendment arguments when I am a very firm believer in it.
your arguing economics of no overhead, vs a government taxed, government sponsored (on the other side) drug cartel where everyone is milking people out of their tax money.
Other people attacked me for cops being arrested and how they are all corrupt. Harassed me over it, then I find out he himself came from one of the most corrupt departments in the USA. No wonder he thinks everyone is like him.
Hell at least I did something about it.
I guess it goes against the basic beliefs to think that laws should be applied to almost anything. So naturally attack the cops, they are the ones who throw up the road blocks and make money right?
People actually think cops make money doing this that they get extra pay for it or something. So many smart people, except when it comes to some stuff. Then you guys get lost somewhere between reality and utopia.
