I work for a company that has a no (illegal) drug policy and even though I'm not in a safety sensitive position, I abide by that policy to keep my job. But this is my choice to do so. (I'm not interested in pot anyway, so the job thing doesn't really matter to me)

I think pot is a gateway drug - to drug dealers.

Key difference between pot and alchohol is that pot stays in your system for a much longer time.

You don't ever hear of domestic violence cases involving stoners as opposed to drunks.

I think economics will finally win. There's too much money to be made taxing pot vs. fighting it. I'm all for fighting the truely evil drugs like meth, but going after pot-heads is a waste of time and money.

However, anyone selling to or encouraging the use with minors deserves harsh punishment.
