I couldn't care less either way. What I do know is that if weed is illegal it drives up the cost and we have to pay for the law enforcement. That sucks. If tobacco is legal and people get lung cancer, I have to pay for it through my crappy medical plan I have to have for the one time every decade my thin, relatively healthy 26 year old body gets ill. That sucks too.

We're screwed either way. You can't just legalize weed and expect the cash to flow. Taxes are crap no matter what, even if you don't participate in the taxed product's use.

Okay, it isn't a perfect world. But if it's going to cost someone money either way, why not at least try and give some consideration to which decision keeps the federal government in it's proper role in the republic?
