yes! let the capitalist state of our nation pump more capital into our economy by taxing marijuana sales, instead of losing money feeding all of the incarcerated marijuana users. while complete decriminalization but no government regulation would be best in my mind, i’m all for government sale and regulation. legalize it!

I say legalize it,
because it has no harmful affects except a few loss brain cells,
and they grow back fairly quick,
so i see no problem!

While I can appreciate “his girlfriend”’s opinion of the wisdom of smoking pot, I still don’t believe that it’s he government’s business to save us from our own stupidity or to regulate our vices.

I mean that a smaller percentage of teen-agers in the Netherlands smoke marijuana than in the U.S., of course.

I would prefer to vote to simply decriminalize the possession of one ounce of marijuana. Taxation and regulation means state control of distribution, an administrative bureaucracy to implement policy, and an enforcement agency with enhanced powers to harass small time growers. I’d like to see this country move toward a sensible laissez-faire approach like that of the Netherlands, where fewer teen-agers smoke marijuana than in the U.S.

I agree with John Perry Barlow (he wrote lyrics with the Grateful Dead) that the failed ‘War On Drugs’ has arisen as a totalitarian impulse among the American people themselves. He says, “…In this futile jihad, Americans have largely suspended habeas corpus, have allowed government to confiscate our goods without indictment or trial, have flat discarded the the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution, and are voluntarily crippling the First…”

Hear, hear!

Yes. Why spend millions fighting against this drug that is really no more harmful than alcohol or tobacco, when you could tax and regulate it instead?
