How are we making MORE ways to become 'buzzed'? Most all of the Cannabis production and distribution and consumption chain and infrastructure has already been in place for literally decades. What we're trying to do here is end The War on Drugs and Cannabis/Hemp prohibition so that we can put an end to all the USFEDGOV wrongs and do right by We THe People. We're trying to #MAGA
We're trying to bring a FREE MARKET, SMALL GOVERNMENT, PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY, LIBERTY AND FREEDOM Solution to the USFEDGOV caused problems that go along with prohibition.
We're trying to boost the Economy
We're trying to give people Jobs in Domestic Production Ventures
You seem to think that because you were formally a stoner that made poor decisions like operate machinery 'buzzed', that others will do the same.
We already have legal alcohol after ending Prohibition there almost a century ago. Has that led to more people operating machinery 'buzzed'?
Also, while there are varying degrees of potency, please do not spread the disinformation that the Cannabis of today is somehow more potent than the Cannabis of yesterday. It's simple false. There has always been stronger and weaker grass produced and consumed, and if anything, todays Cannabis is WEAKER than the Cannabis of yesteryear.
It would be the same as if you used to drink a few Coors light and then today you drank a few shots of Everclear and claimed "damn! todays stuff is so much stronger than that from the good ole days!"
Todays high end, high quality strains, have the same potency profiles they did for decades. There's just a greater prevalence of high end strains (what with decriminalization and legalization bringing it out of the shadows)
errc saysWhat do you find stupid about it?
Let's see, we are going to make MORE ways to become 'buzzed' which leads to more chances to operate machinery 'buzzed' and you don't see this as a bad idea? I give up.
errc saysWhy don’t you think it will work out well?
See the above thought. Also, remember, I was formally a stoner (REAL stoner like stoned each and every day, consuming 2 - 6 joints a day, pretty much for years on end) and the strength of the weed now makes what I was smoking look tame. But hey, what could possibly go wrong - sheesh.

Seems to me that you're just trying to make America Stoned.
errc says
So we need to expand this to 'other' things that we have prohibition? Coke? Heroin? Smack? Assisted suicide? Murder? Yes, I know some of the ideas are extreme but to others it becomes that issue of 'personal responsibility, liberty and freedom. We do prohibit certain things because as a society we've deemed them to be harmful to our values and the society that we want to build and see succeed.
errc says
Under Trump, it seems to be doing well, even with weed illegal.
errc says
Oh, you mean finding jobs for stoners ... then just say so.
errc says
Probably. I've known several people who have been fired for drinking on the job and in a few cases for doing other drugs on the job. I wasn't around and don't know about prohibition days so I can't answer that part of the question.
errc says
Always have been varying strengths, very true. What I can tell you is that as a user I could tell when one was stronger, didn't really stop my actions (driving, working). As for the strains being stronger today. I'm going on what I read and most of what I've seen/read says that today's pot is stronger (as a whole) than it was 40 years ago.
Not impressed with making recreational pot legal. Just as I don't think making percocet, cocaine or heroin a legally recreational drug would be a good idea. Just one man with many years of experience behind my opinion.

I seem to remember that an 1/8 cost $30 back in the mis 80's...Seems like no inflation in the weed market.
And we shall see. Side note, I was a stoner way back when ...

A ridiculous comparison. You may as well place owning a handgun in the same category as owning a TOW missile launcher.

Nah, it's your increased tolerance to it from decades of use.

Maybe, but remember errc says it's about personal responsibility, freedom and free market - to that end you could do the handgun/TOW missile launcher comparison.
