The first country to seriously jump on the allow-and-tax bandwagon will reap a whirlwind of controversy and also a cornucopia of taxes. All eyes are on Uruguay now.

Finally, we might get a chance to see for ourselves what will really happen if it’s legalised.

Outbreaks of rationality are always something to worry about.

It’s a proven fact that long-term marijuana use decays the brain.

Buyers would be required to register with the government. “It’s a fight on both fronts: against consumption and drug trafficking,” said defense minister Eleuterio Fernandez Huidobro. “We think the prohibition of certain drugs is creating more problems for society than the drugs themselves.”

How does this fight consumption? And there will still be scofflaws who traffic illegally (unlicensed). So there will still be a drug war against those who don't pay "their fair share" to Big Government (users and growers).

If you want to drain the swamp (remove druggies from society) to get rid of the alligators (drug dealers) you have to drain the water (lure the druggies) somewhere. Uruguay sounds like it would be a good drain far from us.

It will be interesting to see what happens.

I’d enthusiastically embrace letting the United States government go into the marijuana business if it could be staffed 100% by liberals who would resign their positions of power in all other branches of government.

Maybe politically correct, socialist politicians will follow the dopers down to Uruguay in order to stay with their voting base.
