As far as taxing it with all the rules and regulations that must go in, I would think the only benefit would be getting your state out of debt, not further into it. Giving it all a bad name and only reinforcing the stereotype of hippy dippy potheads, another way of saying irresponsible people.

(Sorry, lulberts)
Not merely because of who it attracts from out-of-state, but because of the big government programs it incentivizes. It's never mere decriminalization. It portends government getting INTO the weed business.

I'm up in Canada Razor and I can tell you that you are correct. Everyone here excited until "legalization". 12 laws to break when it was illegal, now 47 related to weed that you can now be charged with. It's not legalization - it's "institutionalization" and "control".

Edit: I am a bad person who is only interested in cruel pragmatism. Forbid one such as me for paying attention to individual rights on this one specific issue. no no.. we need to pay more attention to junkies, that is the answer! Forget everyone else.

I would ask for Pat's thoughts on this but I see he has been banned.
