During prohibition, the feds jailed quite a few big time criminals for tax evasion when they couldn't get them on anything else. Al Capone was one of them. If they legalize pot and tax it, they'll be chasing the cartels for tax evasion instead of selling.
Just like they chase all the alcohol manufacturers now?
The stupid and presumptuous runs deep on this thread.
Booze and smokes kill tens of thousands more people every year than MJ ever will. You can only come up with moderately circumstantial evidence that it actually causes any harm to anyone..... but OMG everyone is gonna die if they legalize it.
The irony of you folks bitching about a personal freedom, and states rights...... claiming “safety and security” is the reason..... is not lost on me. You sound just like the anti-gun crowd.
