Morally I would stand against any legalization of drugs, and I don't consider prohibition of alcohol as being wrong either, however, in reality where decisions should be grounded, I would support a small limit for a person caught carrying pot. Perhaps the permission of growing a plant or two. But any signs this would be profitable I believe should carry the penalties it has now. Should this stuff be encouraged in any way? No. Should tax dollars pay for the incarceration of millions of people who've done nothing but have a joint and got caught? No. The economic realities I believe support carry limited amounts. However, that is carrying. I never want to see it in public, let alone being sold. With so many released prisoners, I'd support a a more extensive program to go after the other drugs. I'd rather have 2 pot smokers than 1 meth addict.
