Of course, I will obey the law, but... This issue has not only picked up massive support...but is also shaming those responsible for taxing, incriminating, addicting (through deadly, dubiously useful, pharmaceutical, opioid and other prescription drugs) and otherwise destroying people who are often either medically treating or harmlessly recreating through the use of this natural ingredient which, to this day, is under-researched. It is also providing capital that is being used to 'undo' all the terrible and tragic side effects that ridiculous litigation and enforcement has caused. It seems to be a foregone conclusion that legalization is a much wiser path to go down than the one we have been going down for far too long. I say - make it legal and, if employers still want to demand that people not partake in order to be hired, so be it...but don't incriminate and/or destroy them. If people want to partake, fine...but make sure you understand that, with regard to employment and other probable exceptions, you will find your options reduced - but at least you won't have your life ruined or be killed for the sake of someone else's financial gain. After all, the two deadliest vices that are (mostly) unregulated and have high mortality rates, cigarettes and alcohol, are still quite legal and shamelessly easy for people to get their hands on. What else is there to say?

What else is there to say? - Colorado’s experiment in legalizing recreational marijuana has been very successful in raising the state’s revenues. Last year they used some of their millions towards education scholarships amongst other things. This year, with more than $105 million...
