All good points.

I think the biggest obstacle to legalizing weed is the fact that for most of us, using it is purely and simply a reflection of our pleasure in getting high and somebody, somewhere, I suspect, has a moral problem with the idea that we like being stoned, 'cos when we're stoned, we're happy.

That's definitely part of it. The other part is the propaganda is so strong it has become a social taboo(some of that is lifting). Same thing happened with fat(from food) after a bad study came out in the 80's. It also has happened with steroids. There's something about someone becoming superior in some way that people don't like whether that's money, physiology,etc. This is probably what Nietzsche called slave morality.

Can we add masturbation to that list?

The real problem is often you do not know what you got. There is huge difference between some nice herb grown outside in the sun, and some indoor grown, blow your mind, stuff.I'm an outdoor fan, but do not care for the intense indoor stuff. At least when you drink you know how much alcohol is in the mix. This is another reason IMHO why it should be made legal.

It's illegal because the parties that make the most money off its illegality have power or the ear of those who have power. It's simple really. Everything else is just ... um ... blowing smoke.

In most cannabis dispensaries where I live the % of THC for every strain they carry is clearly marked on the "menu board" along with the price.   If the real potent stuff is too intense for you there's always the option of smoking less of it  :bgrin:  or buying the weaker stuff. The top shelf stuff approaches 18% - 20& THC.    Compared to what I grew up smoking in the 60's this is like TNT versus a firecracker.   My opinion is that it's better to use the high-powered "medicine' in smaller quantities so you don't have to ingest as much smoke. Of course if you use a vaporizer or ingest it in a cookie, brownie, or lollipop it doesn't make much difference.   Ingesting it by eating it is very hard to determine the correct dosage.   It takes longer to feel the effects but it is much, much more intense.    

Of course, all this is what I've been told by reliable sources....

Indeed, there won't be much tax money to be made from selling it, just money saved from not policing it. It's so easy to grow, no processing beyond hanging it up to dry and chances are, you'll have so much on your hands you'll be giving it away like those darn zuchini's that I can't get rid off fast enough.

I predict though that there will be some brisk business in the high-end gourmet section of the pot market. I look forward to that.

Well, I didn't read all of pages and pages about weed, but I know if I drink coffee even in the evening or even afternoon to some degree,  I have hard time sleeping. Didn't used to be like that but as I got older, it started keeping me awake.  Taking from bits I read about other discussion, I think anyone who thinks weed doesn't impair them is well....smoking something.
Not saying its bad, but it impairs things like driving.
So Rob, did you start laying off the coffee? I used to drink it all day long ago. But now just a strong cup in the morning. I need that one. But on occassion when I'm working late or drink coffee in the evening...it keeps me up.
10-1614 more than a number, it's body and soul.

Well, I only read a couple of words in your post but I think you're mistaken.  :whistling:

flatlander ya no coffee after 11am.After that I drink only water.No food after 8pm.As for being  impaired thats the goal to shut down the brain.
