I am still waiting for him to show me the several polls he says support the original, flawed one. The same group that came up with the 45% of doctors retiring also had McCain winning the young vote 3 to 1. FAIL

That's not what I said... that's what the polls say... polls that actually have asked the doctors. I'm just better informed than the both of you... obviously.

if you think the majority of doctors are in favor of the govt. taking control of health care.... you need to get out more. get better sources of info... urs stink.

the poll was not flawed...that was the accusation (of course). A larger one was done...and same result.

man what are you talking about, just cause they are not in favor doesnt mean that 45 percent will retire. Thats just plain stupid of you. But you cant be serious that you thought mcCaine would win the young vote 3-1. NO Where on any pole did it ever say that anyone bud obama had the young vote. Even not using a pole it is always obvious that the more liberal the candidate the better chance they will get the young vote. Thats just common sense.

yea its not a farm but for most citizens would be into the idea of a tax, the main thing for farmers is they may allow large cultivation of hemp.

So, where is this poll? I saw the original one, which was a mail in survey with ridiculous verbiage and no mention of other methodology and incomplete results, but I have not seen this 'larger one' you speak of. Until then, it is imaginary.

Show me the money

Still spamming? :lol: We are already talking about this on the proper thread.... ur a little slow...but I'm patient.

So after tending to my real life, I came back to the RIU politics section and checked all the other threads to see if you had posted that magical second survey which backed the results of your flawed first one. I never found it....but I am patient.

We are already talking about this on the proper thread.
Why don't you actually do a bit of real research. Get off the spin channels and sites, and hit some serious sources.

Upgrade ur info. You need to.


You haven't a clue have you? :lol:

You inject something from the past and pin it on me. Go blow smoke up ur own arse.

I've just told you what will happen and WHY. the reason WHY is VERY DIFFERENT.

See if you can figure it out. Try really really hard. Have someone help you...if you need it.

You are your own worst enemy.




These were your only responses in other threads. Still no citation(s) for the backup study or studies that you claim back up your original ridiculous assertion....

Still no reason to spill your spam all over the place. Just start a thread if you want to....

Have some decorum at least.

Can't source it? I'm not surprised. You're a spin baby... upgrade urself. You can do it.

Nice insults, but my comments still stand on their merit. Buy any homegrown cig's lately?

Know why not?

Weed will be the same.

It will be controlled, it will be regulated, it will be taxed, it will end up being produced by big professionals (perhaps Big tobacco).

Take all four of those to the bank.
AMSTERDAM, 03/05/08 - The Dutch state earns 400 million euros annually in tax revenues from 'coffee shops,' as the Dutch cannabis cafes are called. Sales in the sector total around 2 billion euros, according to conservative estimates by TV programme Reporter.
Reporter calculates that the some 730 coffee shops in the Netherlands sell around 265,000 kilos of hashish and cannabis annually. The bulk of this is grown in the Netherlands. Although coffee-shop owners do not have to pay VAT, the tax service does calculate income tax at the highest rate of around 52 percent.
In fixing the tax rate, the tax service assumes that the selling price of grass is twice the purchasing price. In Amsterdam, where coffee shops often have non-price-conscious foreign tourists as customers, the taxman actually applies gross profit margins of 150 to 180 percent.
The finance ministry claimed in a reaction that it does not know how much tax the 730 coffee-shops pay. Tax inspectors who wish to remain anonymous suggest "they do not want to know about it in The Hague, as it is all much too politically sensitive," according to Reporter.
The report reveals that sales of hashish imported from abroad are much smaller than sales of home-grown grass. More cannabis is actually produced in the Netherlands than is consumed domestically. An estimated 60 percent of the cannabis is exported; no tax is levied on this.
"As export product, Dutch cannabis comes second or third after cucumbers and tomatoes. Germany and the United Kingdom are big customers," said police commissioner Max Daniel, responsible for combating the organised crime behind cannabis-growing.
Although police destroy 15 cannabis nurseries daily, the raids have no effect on the supply but only on the price of the cannabis. The growers want compensation for the bigger chance of being caught in the price they get for their grass. And the tax service benefits from this too, the reportage reveals.

Decriminalization rather than legalization seems the way that will work IMO.

obviously it will be regulated and taxed and controlled, but it will be controlled via allowing people to grow certain amounts and taxing that. Then also taxing products sold to those who buy it in stores. its like beer, you can brew your own but how many people rather just go to the stores and buy it.

the major thing is the decrease cost of law enforcement and court costs. then add the tax, you get around a estimated 40 billion in gained and saved revenue.
