The thing I don’t understand about some of the posts that oppose legalization is that they talk about its effects on someone’s body, or that it makes people lazy. Who cares? That’s not my problem. If someone wants to drink themselves to death, that’s not my problem either. The unspoken question is, “yes, but we have to pay for it in healthcare.” Ask me that question and my answer will be that we should not have to pay for other people’s healthcare.
Not to mention that people's poor diets and sleep habits are also paid for in healthcare - do these 'conservatives' want government monitoring our fridges and setting our bedtimes?
