How ‘bout drug testing to vote?

Conservatives would stay in power forever.

There seems to be a slow evolution of national mood in this libertarian direction.

I could see worse resolutions to this issue than putting marijuana and derivatives back into the US Pharmacopoeia, and leave it to duly licensed physicians to prescribe it for whatever reasons they see fit, with the caveat of being responsible for careless prescribing (where the marijuana was reasonably expected to do more harm than good in the case, and yet it was prescribed anyhow). It would not be a perfect system, there would be people sharing it whether or not they were supposed to and others getting it by malingering, but it would still kick most of the stuffing out of the black market.

Oh great, more government and more government regulation. Hip, hip, hooray!!!! Just decriminalize weed and leave it at that. We need more government like we need more jihadists.

A solid majority of voters nationwide favor legalizing and regulating marijuana similar to the way alcohol and tobacco cigarettes are currently regulated.

By the ATF? We have a serious failure to grasp the concept of a republic in this country. I suspect public education is largely responsible, and that it's absolutely intentional.

This poll does a lot to explain how piggies like Barry and the RATS get elected and are allowed to destroy what was once the greatest country on the planet.

I’m coming to the conclusion that pot should be legalized.

The current war on terror is extracting a terrible, violent
price on humanity - making much of the world a transit system
- and raising the price of drugs that gangs have control over.

Is it bad for you? Sure, at least for your lungs. Can we keep people
from doing stupid things? Apparently not.

I’d let it go.

License and tax it if you wish.

I favor allowing it. The fewer ways government tells Americans how to live their lives the better. I hate the nanny state and while smoking pot can have bad effects on those who do it so do a lot of other behaviors that we allow. We should allow it, tax it, and regulate it. It’ll also have the effect of cutting down on the cost and carnage of the drug war.
