Some folks are looking for easy answers to a situation that has to be fought.

Here's 2 easy answers to stopping marijuana: Either secure the borders and let Mexico sit in their own stew, or let states regulate it like alcohol. Why the gov't won't do this is simple. The prison/law enforcement complex needs to be fed.

It's not just the pot they want to legalize.

It's the other hard drugs like Cocaine, Heroine and Meth that are next in line.
