>>800087513 I think he means people hurting themselves by doing stupid shit they wouldn't have done if they weren't stoned. He's clearly retarded though. We haven't seen anything like that out of Colorado or any of the other states that have legalized recreationally

>>800086979 If they legalize it, within 20 years a big company will find a way to mass produce it and will fuck it up just like how tobacco got messed up. Your grandchildren will ironically think of smoking marijuana the way tobacco is currently treated by the media.

Made a bet with my neurologist that they would synthesize a drug for epilepsy based on marijuana before legalization. I won. Drug costs 32,500 with insurance.

>>800088201 The ideal sweet spot would be for it to be nationally decriminalized where the use of it is only a petty charge and for people to just grow it on their own. Any sort of vice is almost always of less quality if you don't make It on your own. That is of course if you're smart enough or driven enougg to do so.

>>800088916 >nationally decriminalized where the use of it is only a petty charge Okay, but I want alcohol criminalized so it can't be manufactured industrially or distributed legally. If you can't make your own alcohol then you can have a caregiver make it for you but they have to be registered as your caregiver.

>>800089636 I think everything you mentioned should be legal and regulated. Legalization, regulation, and education have been proven to reduce drug abuse more than fines and imprisonment. Hard drugs that destroy lives should only be available from government sources in controlled settings because any corporation allowed to sell meth will abuse the fuck out of their consumers. Prostitution should absolutely be legal because regulation largely eliminates the violence and disease associated with the trade. I don't really care about gambling, so just ensure that people understand the dangers of gambling

It's like sober - I understand music the notes/chords and their relation/construction. But high : I just play It's great. Also gambling wtf, just play video games where you can win freely or by skillz Whores : wtf. I don't put my finger where I wouldn't put my dick and I still have ten. I don't put my dick in crazies and so far no diseases. Alcholol ? Sure thing. I like it too, a 6 pack here and there. Everyday completion of emptying bottle of strong liquor ?

I'd be happy if tobacco was criminalized (about time tbh) and alcohol was put under restrictive taxes, drinking age raised to 27 and could only be bought under a quota for special occasions only. If you need chemical stimulation to get through the day, you are a lost cause.

>>800086979 Weed was one of the last free market industries people could participate in and not be taxed up the ass and deal with government manipulations. I’ve personally seen many normal people make fortunes and pull in as much as lawyers and doctors per year, people don’t realize how much of your productivity is stolen from you by your government. It was the one industry normal people could get into and genuinely climb the financial social ladder and that is being stripped away. They will slowly lock down and finally control everything like this, no escape from their parasitism

>>800087208 If you have insurance, you are already paying for a ton of other people's ER visits, that is the point of collective insurance and insurance companies are the reason ER visits, check-up, and medicine are so expensive in the first place. Also not having insurance doesn't mean you don't pay and they just distribute the cost to people with insurance, it means they cut off half or more of the book cost since that is what they would have charged insurance anyway and they put you on a billing plan or garnish your wages, but people who don't have jobs to garnish usually get their costs covered by various charities and fundraisers not your insurance companies.
