    In all honesty we all know it should be legal. It was in this country up untill the mid 1930's. Even Thomas Jefferson has been quoted as saying (im paraphrasing so bare with me) "Some of my best ideas and inventions have come from an afternoon of smoking hemp on the back porch and observing nature." Alcohol was illegal when Cannibus was Legal. So its the Corporations and the government that is swapped it back.

    Secondly Cannibus is a plant that grows naturally like any other crop. Its not changed and altered like meth. It just grows and was put here by God (I believe, lets not turn this into a holy war), where as alcohol was invented by man.

    Naturally fermented fruit when exposed to the correct types of bacteria produces trace alcohol

    a piece of bread becoming wet and simply forgotten, After a short time, can ferment to produce inebriating pulp....this lead to pulp wines (effectively the first mash) and then eventually to beer as we know it. Something like 6000 yrs ago, it was Discovered, not invented

    just like anything else, an idea or discovery can be taken and made better over time......indeed pot and the ways in which it is cultivated have come along way

    Well I was mostly referencing Hard Liquor since that is what kills most people when they OD on Alcohol. Beer is a bit harder to OD on.

    I'm sure cancer is making a lot of people in this country very very rich.


    I didn't really have a point though.

    By government funded studies ESTIMATING the average cultivation and consumption, as opposed to real figures taken by cash crops such as corn and soy beans....Not the mention the average market value of such commodities as marijuana compared to corn and the like, the price difference is astronomical per individual measurement. Also, the fact the convenience these surveys have and their association with the rise in government funding/tax dollars toward the "war on drugs"
