Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana
Seriously it would eliminate drug dealers and we at least be able to receive some revenue from it.

Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana
Yeah. Tax the ever living shit out of it. Take the tax revenue and put it into the healthcare system, help offset the long-term costs of living an unhealthy lifestyle. Just makes financial sense.

Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana
People are going to do if it is legal or not. I am pretty sure most people who really want to do it are doing it, they are not holding back because it is illegal.

Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana
You seriously believe that? It would increase the number of dealers. Pot isn't the only thing they sell anyways.

Tax fraud will also rise if it is taxed. You honestly trust criminals like drug dealers to suddenly abide by tax laws when "allowed" to sell. Heck, there are legitimate businesses selling legal goods that cheat on taxes. All of this "extra revenue" won't be seen. The Government will spend more of our tax dollars trying to enforce their "legal drug sale" guidelines. I'm sure a new department will be formed to handle this new commerce. Trusting Government is as smart as trusting drug dealers.

sure, "drug dealers" might still sell weed to their coke customers... but most weed smokers would gladly not deal with sketchy freaks who are still mixed up with coke/guns/whatever if they can just stop at the liquor store on their way home instead of having to call up some criminal and play phone tag and figure out where and when to meet him and all that BS.

Beer is legal and I have yet to meet a beer dealer in my neighborhood. I should have said decreased the number of dealers and I was referring to pot only dealers.

Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana
Once Marlboro and the other tobacco companies got into the manufacturing side, and using their distributions sources, the true drug dealers would be pushed out of the low end drug use. They couldn't compete with the availability at the local liquor store, and who is gonna risk getting caught up with a "hard" drug dealer, when they can go into the liquor store just as easily for a quick buzz.
