Stop spending millions to thwart marijuana, and start making millions by taxing it! Marijuana has zero negative health implications when smoked through a vapourizer or consumed orally. Why the hell are we fighting it so staunchly?

I agree with this, I'm in favor of legalized grass, but to me it has to be grown in regulated production facilities so that the government can track tax revenues from it.
I'm in favor of selling it in liquor stores to people over the age of 18. If your caught distributing to kids then you get heavily fined. If your growing and distributing it, then we estimate the tax revenue that you owe and bill you for it.
But my bet is that if you legalize it, it will still be more expensive then it is on the streets so your never going to get rid of the criminal element thats involved in it.
The true change that I would like to see is getting rid of the police wasting their time on the penny ante crap possession arrests for the individual user.
