Default Re: A bit of a Taboo

Sadly enough devonin is very right. I have never myself thought of this point, but it is very true. I have myself actually made my own liquor and it does lack in quality from the professionally made substances. I think that if they really wanted to they could legalize marijuana and there would be quite a few good things that would happen. However, devonin has made a very good point, so I'll revise and summarize.

Making marijuana partially legal. With licensed sellers. Much like Amsterdam only being able to buy in certain places and/or markets and stores. There could also be an age restriction on it just like alcohol or cigarettes. Which wouldn't change anything for teens, but would change quite a bit for adults. There would be laws against personal growing. Which would instate professional growing situations. Which would also create job opportunities. And if it becomes a state/federally run business there most certainly would be enough tax revenue to make it worth the morality of legalizing marijuana.
