Re: Washington, D.C., Approves Medical Use of Marijuana

I personally think the actual use of it is pretty harmless. Certainly more harmless than alcohol. The fact that alcohol is legal and weed is not is hilarious IMO. How many awful incidents does alcohol lead to in this country every day? People get hammered and do all kinds of dumb shit. Drive cars, beat people up, injure themselves and others, etc etc. When's the last time you saw a news headline that read "man high on marijuana robs bank, shoots security guard." ???? Doesn't happen. Weed leads to good laughs, deep thought (in my case anyway) and junk food. I'm all for legalizing it, and not just because I smoke it. When you think about the massive tax revenue it would generate and pair that with the relief it would give to our legal system that is so bogged down with petty marijuana arrests/jailings, it would be a massive financial boost for the US. I'm all for what Schneed suggested. Take the revenue generated by marijuana taxation and throw it back into the healthcare system.

as for legalization even before i started smokin again i have always thought it should be legalized. it is just a huge ammount of revenue just sitting there waiting to be taxed. i really honestly beleive that if it were legalized it would greatly help out our economy the only real downside to smoking pot is the fact that this thread was started about a week ago and this is the first time i had noticed it
