By legalizing pot we could slow the killing on the border and take away some of the power of the mexican drug cartels, not to mention the treatment of so many diseases and other issues like social anxiety and depression. It has never caused an overdose, it is not physically addictive, it has never been proven to cause any disease.
Now lets compare that to alcohol which is legal, cheap, and freely accessable. It causes cirrocis of the liver, it is responsible for thousands of teenage deaths each year in car accidents,no to mention the thousands of innocents they kill by driving.
So I ask why can we not legalize something that grows in the wild, we offerr a pill with the active ingredient by prescription, which makes no sense since you can grow it yourself, if everyone is looking for tax revenue. Allow the people who grow and sell to file tax returns or collect a flat tax for growing and another for sales.
I have a chronic physical condition. I am given several narcotic pain killers to control my pain and I can say that this relieves the stress of that pain and gives me some relieve and restores the appetite that the meds kill.
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON THIS HERB SHOULD BE ILLEGAL.
And that is my opinion :)
