I look at it this way, either the tax dollars go to fund our US Government, or it goes to fund the Mexican Cartels. Although I got nothing but love for Mexican people i've met, but I would rather the profits go to help fund Roads, Schools and Medical Care for Americans. Face it, our country is broke and needs to find away to allow profits of products made in America. This is the ideal cash crop for our country, something that George Washington announced when He was president. The problem I see in treating this harmless medically beneficial plant like a hard drug is as you said Seein Stars there is no age limit for it! And the kids who get ahold of it then also have access to hard dangerous drugs which then ruin their lives. Proof? When was the last time you saw a kid who was able to get ahold of alcohol is able to get hard dangerous drugs from the same source? Marijuana should be legal only because it lacks any of the dangers to health that alcohol brings. We need to give Americans healthy choices in their relaxation and healing, and Alcohol just doesn't work. We need to Legalize, not for the sake of stoners like people think, but for the sake of our country and our economy over the next decade so we don't fall to a third world country. Marijuana, it is Safe and has tons of medicinal value without the negative health effects of pharmaceutical drugs or alcohol.
I can't understand why people are willing to sacrifice the American Economic future just because they don't like other people smoking pot.... If that isn't hate I don't know what is.
Damn that is a lot of land! I hope they are using it for corn to cash in on the ethanol market.
