I have no quarrel on the point that marijuana might be worse than alcohol.

In case you are missing my POV, I do not relish a nanny state where the gubbermint decides what you can do or not do in your own home. Whatever happened to self reliance, small government, liberty & freedom? You sound like the democrats who think they know what is best for us non-elites.

Even worse is the fact that in spite of laws against marijuana use and other drugs, a multi billion dollar industry flourishes out there enriching the criminal element. What good is that? Why should I have to pay taxes for a government initiative which is a dismal failure?

“, I do not relish a nanny state where the gubbermint decides what you can do or not do in your own home.”

I agree with this except to the point where people are deliberately destroying their mental capacity. As I said before, a largely sane and rational adult population is necessary for any decent society to continue.
