The weed-smoker wakes up, showers, eats breakfast, goes to work, does their job as well as anyone, goes home, smokes a joint, watches television, eats dinner, goes to sleep.
The non-weed-smoker wakes up, showers, eats breakfast, goes to work, does their job as well as anyone, goes home, watches television, eats dinner, goes to sleep.
Why should the weed-smoking part warrant fines, imprisonment and a permanent criminal record?
Government is tyranny; law is oppression; prison is persecution. A free country is supposed to keep all three to a minimum. In the case of drugs, tobacco and alcohol, we find the opposite. Cowardly opportunists tell the idiots, "These things are evil. They will kill everyone, unless you vote for me.".
Liberty and justice for all, except weed-smokers. Maybe now that the country has been fully populated, we can get rid of the dumb sales-pitches? We don't need more immigrants. We need to set the country straight once again.

This is one of the problems with socialized health-care. In that system, government then feels it has the right to tell you how healthy you must be (which they do at gunpoint). The more unhealthy people are, the more expensive the system.
There are so many problems with socialized medicine. If, in self-defense, I shoot someone in the knee-cap, I would have to pay for their recovery. If people do drugs, and they O.D., or get cancer from tobacco, the whole society must pay (in $'s).
You institute socialized medicine, they'll never legalize things like marijuana. I'm fairly stunned a free society would even consider socialized medicine. Bunch of cocky doctors, think they know everything, even though half the time they're stone-cold wrong, forcing everything through government to live a particular way. My stepfather is a surgeon. Most of you probably don't know medicine behind the scenes. Most doctors are just assholes like everyone else, except more egotistical.
Socialized medicine means the inevitable creation of a permanent health-standard, to be enforced by fines and punishments. As you can see today, the 8th amendment is supposed to eradicate persecution, but how often is it followed?
