The feds should just legalize pot and be done with it. It's no more dangerous than alcohol.

Even the "It's a gateway drug" argument is baseless. Cigarettes are much more of a "gateway drug" than pot, they just have better lobbyists.

Maybe they should spend more time teaching people to read and write. That would be a far better use of their time.

Did you know that Hemp(Marijuanna) was the number one crop grown in America at one time?

And that Hemp was even mandated as a crop by the usa gvt for anyone that had a farm for a while? Even if they were a cotton grower or corn grower or tobacco grower they had to grow a few acres of Hemp....for paper...and Rope

Turns out Randolf Hearst not only owned Newpapers but the paper mills that produced the paper from trees.... he didn't like the fact that paper could be made from Hemp and had alot of friends in Congress and high places....that killed the Hemp business for him....

Interesting story if you ever get the chance to google how and why marijuanna became illegal in our country...
