Legalize marijuana. Keep the taxes minimal so that legal production and distribution makes black market pot unprofitable.

Another pothead heard from. Probably born after the same scam was sold about tobacco.

How did that work out, skippy?

Tobacco used to be illegal and legalizing it didn't make black market tobacco unprofitable?

Another daddy-statist heard from.

Sorry. I have never used pot in my life. In fact, once upon a time, I was pro-drug war.

Nowadays, I’m just more worried about civil liberties than I am about potheads.

I’m an old fart.
Cigarettes are highly taxed and have been for decades, so I really don’t understand what you’re talking about.
