I've never used the stuff and I'm not sure I support legalization. Decriminalization, yes, but not necessarily legalization.

However, there are some issues here that interest me. One is how they'll treat criminal records from drug use. Will these be wiped off the books? That would open up travel and job opportunities. Also, what about insurance applications? I'm a financial planner and sometimes insurance applications have been denied or applicants have been rated for what has been deemed a criminal activity and, depending on usage, smoking.

Also, might insurance policies that had been rated (higher premiums) previously be reviewed and rated changed? You'd likely still be a smoker but a criminal conviction would presumably go away.

This will be very interesting.
