Legalizing marijuana sure sounds like a great idea right, especially when politicians are preaching about how we can save our economy by taxing and regulating it. Sure adults might gain the right to buy and possess weed, but why should stoners have to pay excessive tax to buy a fucking flower?
If you stop and think about it for a second…do you really want to hand the absolute control of marijuana to the very people who are currently harassing and jailing and terrifying us over it? It doesn’t seem right to give the same people fighting to keep marijuana AWAY from us the exclusive right to dictate how we get it…let alone reap tons of tax revenue to do it! Stoners kept WEED alive. We were the dudes who risked life and limb, not to mention liberty, to grow weed. Stoners are the ones responsible for cross-breed ’em to create new strains, for bringing weed indoors and pioneering inventive new techniques. We nurtured the marijuana plant and the business of marijuana and transformed it into what it is today, a generator of opportunity. So why shouldn’t the people who carried the torch benefit from some tax revenue, eh?
There was a point in time in our country when it was perfectly legal to grow and possess as much weed as you wanted. So what we all really want is to repeal marijuana prohibition. And, we want it without any taxation or regulation! Why shouldn’t every adult on planet earth be able to grow as much marijuana as they’d like without any intervention?
It’s not like the government isn’t going to be reaping financial rewards if weed were to be RE-LEGALIZED. Imagine the money that could be saved if weed didn’t need to be policed.
So who else might want to legalize weed MORE than those who enjoy consuming it? Those who are already selling it legally. Why wouldn’t they want to maintain exclusivity? Legalizing weed is great for these guys because it expands their marketplace to EVERYBODY not just patients. And, to make sure everybody keeps coming back, there are laws being written right now that are limiting your rights to grow your own. Some of those laws will even completely prohibit growing your own if you live within a certain proximity to a dispensary.
As we move closer to legalization it’s quickly becoming KEY to stay informed and to know exactly what you’re saying with each and every vote you cast so legalizing marijuana doesn’t ruin everything. It’s important to pass new laws that make marijuana laws better for STONERS not those who are profiting from them already!

Its all about the Money man!! Thats what this worlds all about. Id rather have it legal/de criminalized and taxed then to get arrested. im sure if it was you could grow your own. thats like buys tomatoes from a store and then saving them seeds and growing your own. the government dont tax you for that so they should of for a weed plant.

God forbid people try and make money selling weed when its legal.
Really, LEGAL weed will be awesome, I don’t care about the taxes. It will STILL be cheaper and it wont be illegal.

You make some damn good points. My biggest fear would be poor quality and high prices, but no one really knows what the outcome would be. I think the gov is making a little too much coin of marijuana remaining illegal vs taxing it, but maybe I’m wrong.
Truth
right now the goverment canadian/american both get pay offs for keeping it illegal, from both drug cartels from mexico and other 3rd world drug cartels, And pharmaceutical companys themselves(they spend billions of our dollars to make new drugs that still can’t even hold a candle to what marijuana can do for almost all sickness’s from the common cold to being the only known drug that does anything for Alzheimers) the head of mexican drug cartel personally thanked(not in person obviously) president obama for keeping it illegal.. why would that be? lets face it like it was stated above this world consists of money and keeping drugs illegal = more money that legalizing it..
currently it is rumored that 2 billion dollars is running around canada alone as a resualt of marijuana alone…how much do u think canadians pay just for the war on drugs yearly… it’s more than the rumored 2 billion and thats why marijuana is illegal and unless we start to change how our whole human race works(moonnnay!)
it will never be legal to the point u can grow in your window

You guys should really pay attention to what this guy is saying…you think the gov’t hasn’t thought this through? If it’s legalized you probably wont be able to grow it either. Honestly, they know the going rate for bud on the streets, i doubt they would make it cheaper. It’s all about the dead presidents man..

Another important quality to look for a friend is selflessness. Friendship is built on the basis of mutual cooperation and support, those people who are only thinking about themselves will not consider others’ feelings, they will make use of friends easily. So such people will not be the choice of making friends.
