Those two States seem to do just fine regulating gambling and prostitution within their borders. Why should a stupid plant be any different?
But what amuses me most is the priorities of the libertarians: Potheads plus the welfare state.
Thanks for putting your astounding ignorance of Libertarian principles on display for all of us to enjoy. Libertarians HATE the welfare state and would end it tomorrow if it weren't supported by BOTH the Republicans and the Dems.

It seems to me that it is difficult to put a casino or a hooker in a small plastic baggie and put it in your pocket.
Granted, I haven't tried it, so I don't know for sure.

Or so they say. To be honest, I don't see any articles in Reason written about it. Certainly none posted on FR. And you'd think rather than saying "Both parties do it, I give up!" they'd be a little bit more active about rolling it back bit-by-bit which was done in the mid 90s under the GOP House leadership.
Oh, it wasn't the kind of flashy FIX IT NOW! kind of thing demanded by the libertarian crowd, but we do what we can.
The point I was making, and seems to be having difficulty getting through the fog, is that if you want your libertarian paradise, the way to do it is first to make people responsible for their actions and then give them permission to ruin their lives.
If you do it the other way around, you will never get people off the dole.
I don't think most libertarians are the least bit animated about the welfare state. I think they could care less. What really gets them out of bed in the afternoon is legalizing pot.
