You already have that with alcohol, Roy. As with anything, responsible use is up to the individual. I tend to think that those people who are apt to misuse a substance, any substance, will do so whether it's legalized or not. Pot in itself is not addictive. Alcohol is actually a much more dangerous substance overall. The amount it would take to overdose on pot is impossible to intake. Not so with alcohol.

That would be nice. The only thing that concerns me are the "unintended consequences" of unlimited availability on accidents, productivity, responsibility, etc.

None of the above , anger would disappear , smiling would increase , productivity would rise for the reason the individual would be totally focused , a bad driver will always be a bad driver so accidents will occur though my experience and the experience of others who smoked our driving was phenomenal , we were totally engaged and became one with the car or motorcycle . Responsibility...you function perfectly though your response to government is one raised finger !!!!

Great point. And I imagine it would be about as easy to recognize someone too stoned to work as someone too drunk to work. I just know someone who works for the Occupational Safety & Health Administration for the state, and they have seen an increase in marijuana-related accidents.

God had created the Earth and watched the population grow , in his hand he held a large salt shaker and placed it over the Earth , when asked what was he doing , God replied " making it more interesting," and turned the container towards those who were present , the label read "Idiots."

In that case, God may have "over-seasoned" with his shaker! :p
