Reply #34: Who the hell said anything about subsidizing marijuana?

[EOTE]

Why the hell would you even bring up that idiotic meme? Do you really think ANYONE advocating the legalization of marijuana is suggesting that welfare money be used to provide it? Rather, one of the biggest reason FOR the legalization of marijuana is the huge amounts of revenue it would bring IN to the government. Rather than costing many billions per year preventing its distribution and locking up non-violent offenders (who then act as a further drain on society by not being able to provide for their families), we could be earning many billions in tax revenue every year. It's truly a no-brainer issue. Of course, when we have to fight the militant ignorance spewed forth by people like you, it becomes far more of an uphill battle.
