The title says it all.  It's what I think anyway.  Discuss...

John McCain: ‘Maybe we should legalize’ pot

Quote:

...McCain appears open to making a dramatic shift on marijuana policy, saying during a town-hall meeting in Arizona that he's open to potentially legalizing weed.

“Maybe we should legalize. We're certainly moving that way as far as marijuana is concerned,” McCain said in comments first reported by Arizona Daily Star columnist Tim Steller. “I respect the will of the people." ...

I'll be the judge of that. :sadyes:

The decision by the justice department not to prosecute marijuana offenders will enable states with legalized and medical marijuana to collect weed taxes unhindered. This (in addition to money saved by restraining police action against people in those states) could go on to ease the federal government's budget strain as more revenue is collected by those states. Think capillary action.

I know you conservatives have a pretty hard time understanding economics that don't "trickle down", but trust me on this one. :ancientaliens:

Before he became president he promised he would legalize weed, or st least decriminalize it. I'm disappointed.

Because of stereotypes man.  The irony of this happening, and America's criminal justice system record, is just too much. :nonono:  However, it is an appropriate move that he should make.

Nah, there is a much bigger reason that involves big money.  But, I bet this thought has passed through his mind. :shrug:

It was a passing thought, amusing at the time.

Eventually it might happen but not under the current administration.

Why do you think Obama has the power to enact or strike down laws? Those are the legislature and judiciary's jobs.

I don't think that.  Evidence points to the opposite.

He came into office chanting "change."  But little has changed IMO.

Campaign promises constitute "evidence" that the executive branch has the power to unilaterally enact or strike down laws? :curbyourenthusiasm:

There's your change-- legalization at the local level gaining acceptance at the federal level. That is more than Obama, or anyone else in his position, has ever done or could ever could do toward full legalization.

I don't think race has anything to do with this-- it has to do with entrenched legal policy that is slowly being overturned from the ground up. As head federal executive, the most Obama can do is to order his people not to arrest or prosecute the beneficiaries of state pot laws. And that is what he is doing.

:mindblown:

Obama seems to have no problem ignoring immigration law or parts of Obamacare.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
