Enough with the pot grandstanding. Have some self restraint. We all know it's more than just about being for medical. Even Amsterdam is reversing some of their policies on pot after seeing the long term societal effects.
Bottom line, a drugged populous may be a happy populous, but the long term effects whether it be alcohol, opiates, or pot, a populous that self-medicates is a populous that is not self-reliant. Rather, irresponsibility… and responsibility, has to be shared across the whole group. When the incentives are wrong the populous suffers, and I for one would rather live in a society of staunchly sober no fun hard working Puritans than a society that enjoys itself indirectly at the expense of others.
History has shown the effects of one lifestyle over the other and it's a battle as old as time itself. Cannanites anyone? Athenians? Romans? French 1871 Parisian commune? Berlin pre-WW2? USSR? Everyone always wants their fun and the liberty to have it at others' expense… until the effects of such a society come to fruition. Please. Read your history. Nothing good comes from drugging up for self gratification. There are plenty of pain meds and plenty of other foods to heal people that most pot advocates don't even consume themselves.
She used justin bieber in a presentation bruh
