All true of alcohol - as is the case with the negative consequences of prohibition. In a liberty loving society, needs, negative consequences, and health hazards remain an adult's choice (with appropriate consumer warnings). And youth has been reporting since well before any state legalized pot that it was almost as easy for them to get as beer or cigarettes despite the latter being much more widely used among adults; prohibition has failed our youth. Regulated legalization turns the market over to sellers who have an economic incentive to not sell to youth. Legalizing pot puts both our youth and our country at risk with basically no benefit. It is a substance that is far more caustic to our society than people who have never worked in public service have any concept of.
At this point, I'm content to let readers decide who has the better of the argument. Cheers!

This will benenfit libs since they have the mentality of children. Just what I was thinking! I often describe liberalism as the political philosophy of two-year-olds ("I want what I want when I want it!"). When I saw the title of this article, I thought, "Great! Let's get liberals to smoke pot, so they'll mature 2.8 years and start acting like kindergarden kids!"

Im shocked its only that much. The long-time dopeheads Ive known are the dumbest people I’ve ever met. Followed by drunks. But by far, long-term dopeheads are the worst.
