For guys like me who can get weed anytime I want but have a tough time saying no to it when it is in my possesion. I would like the idea of stopping by the liquor store and grabbing a couple of joints for the firepit on a Friday night.
I would rather have it that way than having to buy a larger illegal quantity and have it sit in my garage calling to me to come out and play on a weeknight or worse weekday.
As a personal view, the question of would pot use cut into booze sales? For me absolutely, I would rather smoke a joint and sip water around a fire than be on my 6th beer anytime.
Perhaps my thinking is flawed but if I go over to another persons house for a get together I can smoke a joint, fit in nicely with the drinkers in the room and drive home in a few hours sober and safe and not feel like I donated my night as the designated driver.
