This, but on a grander scale.

Just legalize it federally. Tax the shit out of it. Make money.

Our politicians are dumber than the underwear gnomes on South Park.

Their white board just looks like:

  1. ???
  2. ???
  3. Profit.

Well, I laid it out.

I can take pills that don't work, and break my ability to orgasm, or (as a medical patient) I can control my seizures with something that won't leave me hung over, and is much healthier, especially if handled in edible form (any sort of smoke is damaging to the lungs)

Oh wait, booze doesn't control seizures and can provoke them? Why would I want alcohol unless I'm in a very safe place? Like home (where my wife, who has 20+ years of neurology experience can handle any epileptic events properly).
