Legalize it, tax the sh!t out of it. Make users sign an agreement that they realize that they are voluntarily partaking in an activity that could lead to harder drugs that can and will result in addiction, and therefore waive any and all rights to sue the state and/or receive any drug addiction treatment at the expense of the state.

LOL. Libertarian nonsensical dream world. It’ll get legalized and the number of people on government assistance will increase and in 30 years the number of people on SSID will skyrocket. Again. We lost.

I’m fine with all that, but I would add that penalties for selling or giving pot (as well as other drugs) to minors carry the same kind of penalty as child porn. Essentially zero tolerance and major mandatory jail time. And DUI penalties would be that same if not stiffer than for alcohol.

My libertarian streak says I don’t care that much about what consenting adults do privately as long as it doesn’t harm others. But the evidence is growing that pot can result in great ham to adolescents and teens, and protecting kids is part of the responsibility to have individual freedom as an adult.

Yeah. And the next time someone buys a six pack of Bud make them do the same thing.

I already wish I was a kid so I smuggle brownies and cola into to those stupid Michelle Obama infested schools and sell it.
Why create a ready made market for dealers?
