Why should the libertarian pay for your health care bills?
LOL.
Yes, pot heads have many enemies: the police, mean judges, the green aliens trying to rob them.
Read the study again buddy.
UK: Cannabis May Make You A Safer DriverDo marijuana and driving mix?
A new study by the Hartford Hospital in Connecticut and the University of Iowa has found only "minimal" changes in a person's ability to properly operate a vehicle while under the influence of marijuana.
I agree get the government out of my life. Ban potheads from social security. Ban potheads from government-funded healthcare. Make potheads pay for the damage they do to their brains and on the roads.
You can’t have free minds and free markets with fried brains. Oxford University has also found more concerning evidence. That said, two wrongs never make a right.
Scientific studies are a dime a dozen, and experts in the same field can, and often, disagree. Just look at climate science, its full of complete garbage spewed by some of the most well educated supposedly credible people out there. And, as we know, they have manipulated data and skewed studies in order to prove conclusions they have already drawn.
Just because a group of neurscientists claim that something is true, does not mean it is true. I will trust real life experiences over a scientific study any day. And my experience has been that potheads are not any more paranoid than the general population, and maybe even less so.
That’s the point he shouldn’t have to and healthcare-dependent potheads burden everyone more.

I’m not going to adopt that paranoid argument.
A real conservative would want to end SS for everyone.
Sell the people what they want.
I am constantly reminding myself that, What they want and I want are two different things.
I aint condoning drug culture,
You see what what libs do?
You must not have much of a life, if you worry about pot smokers on the "dole". There is no data to support your outlandish claims, least of all any drain on the public.
You don't know what you are talking about. There are thousands of things that are in front of pot users. I'd make you pay for the bandwidth that is being wasted talking such unsupported nonsense. I'd rather ban idjits from Australia!
You're not a conservative, FRiend, you sound more like a guy with no friends and the desire to control the lives of others...
Thanks for your paranoid remarks and personal attacks – now can you address the neuroscience questions?
Pot mellows people out. Make them lethargic, not aggressive.
No One needs a PHD to tell them that it makes them paranoid.
It’s preposterous. It just doesnt happen
“No one is “drunk”, but are you trying to tell me nobody is feeling any sort of intoxication at all? Nobody’s BAC levels have increased?”
Well like me you have probably had a drink or two, and also been drunk?
There is a difference, yes? It is a matter of extent. In small amounts alcohol can have little to no effect, or even be good for you. Even if you use it regularly.
I can’t say “Having a drink or two is bad” and be honest. Nor can I honestly say, “Being drunk is fine.”
But I can honestly say: “Virtually everyone who smokes pot smokes until they are seriously high.” And: “Regular pot use renders you stupider, less rational, more paranoid, and pretty much worthless.” Those are true statements, in my experience.
I am not writing here to defend drunkenness or alcoholism. I find both as abhorrent as pot use.
Every pot smoker I've known for the last thirty years does.
I have never seen people just take a hit of pot and then go about their day. They always smoke until they are messed up.
How many people have you seen smoke pot and how many times?
