tf..?

Not sure if this is the authors sky is falling bleeding in or Booker really wants this?

Communities should be able to decide for themselves. I think decriminalization is needed across the land but if certain communities want to prevent a legal weed market setting up shop that should be okay and they shouldn't be penalized. I can just imagine a community that's 80% Mormon not wanting a weed shop in their town and big gov't doing something to penalize them.

they deserve it

The only reason illegal weed is illegal is because the government didn’t get its take on it.

You can grow carrots in your backyard but the government still gets taxes from carrots. Industry will innovate and the previously illegal growers will stop after a while. Its not gonna be instant but it will happen.

How does the government get taxes from few vegetables someone grows in their back yard whether they sell them at a farmers market or trade or use themselves?
Also I’m not talking the weed someone grows and uses themselves I should clarify. It’s legal here to have 3 plants for personal use. I’m talking about non licensed sellers, which the only distinction between it and legal weed is the government didn’t get to tax it.

Bullshit.

First: No one wants kids or teenagers to smoke. That is a parenting problem. Second: The drug war is a failure, waste of tax dollars. That alone is a good enough reason to legalize it along with other drugs.

Drug addiction should be treated as such rather than making someone a criminal.
