Bernie Sanders launches campaign to help the Veterans because Trump and Republicans hate our Veterans
Yay! Legalized weed will get everybody off welfare, fix our broken infrastructure, double the GDP, repair crumbling schools, and put a man and Mars!
Go Bernie Go!

I don't think it would hurt any of those thing though. It would help GDP and infrastructure most likely. War on drugs money could go towards infrastructure, we've already got it budgeted.
As much as I believe my local drug dealer is paying federal taxes on his pot sales, it probably isn't happening. It's not going to balance the budget, but any corp paying taxes on weed sales is a good thing for everyone instead of the dealers and cartels paying nothing. And causing crime.

I was being facetious as to the degree of upside, though I do support marijuana legalization.
The best tax reform would be Georgism, the Single Tax (though I would add a Tobin and Intangibles Tax) on Land (not Property) Value.

You forgot that legalized weed is going to cure cancer and Alzheimer's as well as reverse aging.
Also legalized weed will eliminate racism, misogyny, and transphobia whilst catapulting homeless veterans from the gutters to the boardrooms.
Oh and it will make Muslims realize that they shouldn’t blow people up all the time.
@Patrick why does it say there is 8 comments on the front page but when I click the thread it only shows 6?
Who claimed that? Link?

Interesting how the article in the OP doesn't make ANY reference to Veterans, Trump or Republicans.
Ending Prohibition will definitely help get people off welfare as it creates tons of jobs and large boom to local economies.
"Bernie Sanders just launched a massive petition to legalize weed nationally"
Some politicians will do ANYTHING to buy votes!

Is that what happened when prohibition ended for alcohol?
The article in the OP Is about Bernie trying to help Vets get their medicine.

We’re talking about Cannabis Prohibition here. Which will obviously bring millions of jobs and hundreds of billions of economic activity.
Everyone knows this. Facts

Not sure what you're reading, but there isn't a single mention about vets in the article. better go recheck.

I’m amazed that anyone doesn’t know all of this already, but for those too ignorant or lazy to do their duty as an American, I’ll help do it for you!
That didn't happen with alcohol, why would that happen now? Less people use pot.
I’m almost at a loss as to how to answer this. Wtf are you talking about??
Those pesky facts again.
A recent Gallup poll found that one in eight adults in the United States said they smoke marijuana.
anon_49c66 saysThose pesky facts again.
" The U.S. beverage alcohol industry is a major contributor to the economy, responsible for over $475 billion in total U.S. economic activity in 2014, generating $110 billion in wages and nearly 4.6 million jobs for U.S. workers."

So, yes it did happen with alcohol.
