prohibition is marxism
On a national level, agreed. I believe a state may legitimately prohibit substances, however.
No matter, I think mj prohibition is and always was a fool's errand. One look at the electorate tells you it's on its way out. Opposition is highly concentrated in the oldest age group, while the strongest support is in the younger groups.
Exit polls from the 2014 medical marijuana vote in Florida illustrate this point. The measure got 58% of the vote, just short of the 60% needed. The numbers are striking =>
Ages ==> Yes / No
65y + => 38% / 62%
50-64 => 58% / 42%
40-49 => 63% / 37%
30-39 => 68% / 32%
25-29 => 75% / 25%
18-24 => 83% / 17%
