I know it’s everywhere, but in Mfg you will be fired for using it. Workmans comp insurance costs an employer in Mfg half as much if they have a zero tolerance policy on drugs.

People in manufacturing are doing it now anyways. Remember the story about Chrysler employees being filmed getting high on their lunch break in 2010? That was probably not an isolated incident. I believe they were all fired which is how incidents like that should be dealt with, but the union later forced the company to rehire them. Irresponsible people do irresponsible stuff regardless of the legality. My point is that the only way in which all the money and effort we have spent on keeping marijuana illegal has impacted availability is by making it more expensive than it should be. It is readily available in most locales in the states. It has been 40 years or so of the “war on drugs” but I do not see it lowering crime or drug availability; actually the opposite has happened. In my view, WOD has very expensively failed in meeting any of its stated objectives. Maybe it is time to try something else.
