I personally don't care what people do. If you want to drink gasoline and play with matches then have fun. But if you want to see how far the pot and drug issue will go then look at the progress the Libertarian party has made despite most people identify themselves with the Libertarian party.

Yea I know your views on pot, or I know you're not really an anti-pot kinda guy. I'm of the thought that when a government systematically brainwashes its populace in the name of corporate profit using complete lies and proceeds to destroy thousands of lives based on those lies I consider reversing that policy of the highest possible order. There is much more to it than just bringing weed to a Dave Matthews concert. Prohibition of Marijuana taught the American Government that they could get away with anything as long as they used the right kind of propaganda, and we've (even those that will never see a joint in person) all suffered for it.

Don't get me wrong, Health Care is a "big fucking deal" and all...but the oppression resulting from Marijuana prohibition goes back 70 years. Not to mention the at least $10 billion a year that is spent enforcing archaic anti-pot laws, and the billions more that could be made in tax dollars.
