    Drug laws were a way to turn liberals into felons. You sure you want to give that up? I know -- now it's OK because it's rural whites who are all on drugs. But hey, anything that works.

      Do you say the same for aloe vera salves and aspirin? Companies aren't selling nature, they're selling products derived from nature. They're selling expertise that give you all the mellow without the paranoia. We tax products and expertise all the time.

        And then when the public doesn't pay out, you'll wish you had taken the profiteers. Learn from when Vermont tried this.

          There are some of us heartless people with brains that can look beyond a person's party affiliation. Funny thing is, natural genetic modification (not that synthetic stuff most of the world is against) has resulted in strands that only have the medicinal qualities, so we don't have to worry so much about a bunch of stoners acting stupid.

              I haven't the foggiest idea, not knowing the laws around growing tobacco plants in states where I don't live.

              Some states allow for people to grow marijuana plants so long as the production is under a certain threshold and only intended for personal consumption.

                        generalize much? I know lots of rural whites who aren't on drugs? Drugs are definitely an issue in rural Maine but they are still a minority.

                          Most drug users these days are rural and white. That's not a generalization.
