You know it’s not like you’re halucinating, right? sure, i am a stoner from way back. i can't remember the last time i imbibed though, it has been a good number of years. with that said, it does impair one ability. the degree to which it does is probably debatable though.

By all means, let's start the introduction of Islamic law and culture with legalizing marijuana, right @The_Dude? Again, not true. What census gave you this gem? It’s like we need to fact-check everything you say because you’re always making things up. Seriously, the next time you wanna spout a fun-fact, Google it first so you don’t look so foolish.

reddogblitz Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 2 minutes ago, Foxx said: actually, the never expanding nanny-state is running out of revenue sources and making pot legal is just another blatant money grab to line their coffers. do you honestly think they care what the plebs want? No. This is why it's only legal in places where they let the citizens decide by citizen's initiative. I live in Washington and that's how it got passed here. The state legislature passed it a few years earlier but the Governor refused to sign it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love to see these personal responsibility freedom types on here being against it. LOL. I don't like drunks but I don't think alcohol should be illegal. Bottom line is the people want it, it's just the politicians with pockets lined with pharmaceutical and alcohol industry and private prisons money that don't want it. In almost every state they have let the voters decide it's passed. Yeah it’s ridiculous that conservatives advocate for the continued prohibition. Ignorance and hypocrisy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of people would like the freedom to drive as fast as they want any time anywhere and would be willing to pay a tax for that privilege. Should we do that too? Sure a few more people will die and there will be some extra cost to administer that right, but shouldn't we consider it in the name of freedom?

This is a horrible point, though I’m sure you find it valid. 1. Speed limits are for government roads. The government owns them. They can control them. 2. What I’m advocating for is a man to grow whatever flowers he wants on his property, and to do with his flowers what he pleases on his property. That is not me advocating for somebody to get high and drive which is irresponsible and is something I do not do, nor have I ever. 3. By your logic it’s a short road to gun control. 4.

Will law enforcement costs rise? Will use of other more dangerous drugs also rise? Are there health risks for long term use and what will that cost both users and non-users? Will academic and work performance fall? Don't give me the alcohol argument. I'm interested in knowing if legalizing this is a net negative or net positive for our society.

RochesterRob Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, Doc Brown said: What marijuana stock benefits the most from legalization? Long term? None. It will be a commodity just like corn or wheat. It will be over produced to the point of being near worthless just like corn and wheat have been for most of the last 100 plus years in the US. All the regulations and licensing will not prevent overproduction. I listened to a news report yesterday that said that the black market is adapting well in states where it is legal. If I were a financial advisor IF you wanted in as an investor my advice would be to get back out within a year or two years at the latest before the suckers figure out pot is not a magical profit industry. Now to build my time machine to go back to 1986 to tell myself to buy 100 shares of Microsoft (of which I had the money then to do so) at the IPO. Or better yet tell myself that the years 1983-1986 should all be about earning money to put into Microsoft.
