marijuana should be legalized using the same legislation recently discussed in mexico. small amounts of the drug allowed in possession would decrease prices, lowering profits for dealers and growers, making the business less appealing. everyone wins, and the us government is not wasting time and money on the war on drugs when we need to figure out how to get out of our mess in the middle east.
the other option, total legalization of marajuana, is even better. cigarette companies already possess copyrights for brands of joints and they would immediately take over the business. costs would plummet, dealers would disappear, and the druglords of south america would lose a giant set of profit
...i cannot, however, in good conscience advocate the legalization of cocaine or crack cocaine or any other hard drugs

By legalized, I assume you mean regulated. Probably within 40-50 years, provided we are not living under a theocracy at the time and that we have not surrendered up our rights in the name of security.

when America's sheep stop being sheep and start being wolves.
Laws are made and changed by the vote of the people, stop whining and start petitioning to get it to ballot. Many people say that the government doesn't represent the people, if that's so it's because no one is making a move to change it. With all the positive words I've read in here I'm wondering what's stopping us. maybe we're too stoned.

$113 billion is spent on marijuana each year interior the U.S., and thanks to the federal prohibition *each and every* dollar of it is going as we communicate into the palms of criminals. far from scuffling with human beings from making use of marijuana, the prohibition instead creates 0 criminal grant amid huge and unrelenting call for. the dimensions of the wear this reasons far exceeds any earnings obtained from retaining marijuana unlawful. in accordance to the ONDCP, a minimum of sixty p.c. of Mexican drug cartel funds comes from merchandising marijuana interior the U.S., they defend this revenues via brutally torturing, murdering and dismembering countless harmless human beings. If we are able to stop human beings making use of marijuana then we could accomplish that NOW, yet as quickly as we gained't then we could legalize the production and sale of marijuana to adults with after-tax expenditures set too low for the cartels to verify. one way or the different, we could rigidity the cartels out of the marijuana industry and eliminate their extraordinarily profitable marijuana earning - no employer can stand up to the shortcoming of sixty p.c. of its revenues! as much as now, the cartels have accumulated extra effective than one hundred,000 "foot squaddies" and perform in 230 U.S. cities, and this is now believed that the cartels are "morphing into, or making person-friendly reason with, what could be considered an insurgency" (Secretary of State Clinton, 09/09/2010). The longer the cartels are allowed to make the main the prohibition the extra effectual they'll get and the extra our very own very own risk-free practices would be put in jeopardy.
