Legalize
Legalize the weed and tax it like alcohol and tobacco, the amount of money spent on the "War on Drugs" is too high. Look up the budget of the Border Partol or the DEA.Then add in the court costs for people arrested for possesion. I was sentenced to six months in jail for possesion of less than one ounce. Four months and twenty days for being considered behaving good.
Employers can still require testing, I don't want a pilot who is high while crusing at 30,000 feet.
