Remove pot from class 4,dont lump it with heroin and cocaine.Legalize it and make it a revenue stream.Who do you think are the largest group of taxpayers in the country?The drinkers and smokers pay most of the taxes.Add pot to the list,pay for the bailouts.Concentrate on the dangerous drugs [coke,heroin] they present the most collateral damage in society.Society knows the gateway drug is alcohol,not pot.Waisted resources spent on enforcing pot laws is a waste of my tax $$-Corruption is more harmful than pot.Trusted officials taking bribes is destroying taxpayers confidence in their ability to enforce the law.Legalize and tax pot,move on to bigger issues,just add another vice tax,1 l less law,1 less chance of corruption.Corruption is worst than pot.If it wasnt for the drinkers and smokers,sales taxes would be 20% at the least,in some states it could reach as high as 25%.Keep that in mind if there was a referendum on the legalization of pot.It would keep our taxes down.If a adult seeks to indulge,let them pay the tax on pot. Keep govt out of our private lives.Anti-pot folks are pro-martial law folks.It is pointless to waste taxpayers $$ on unenforcible laws,same as trying to enforce no underage drinking on college campuses.Teach kids about drugs & alcohol,& danger for abuse-be sensible not reprehensible.
