My opinions..

Ok to start off with opinions are like assholes, everybody has one and these are mine. Marijuana, economically a good bailout. If the gov't would tax&regulate marijuana there wouldn't be no states struggling to see where they will get money to pay their employees, some states wouldn't be cutting out state funded college assistance programs either. Come on guys. If I'm not mistaken Obama is 110% for education. So why is his home state of Illinois denying people education by taking away the money that they use to pay for books,supplies and tuition. What kind of country are we turning in to? Just take a look around. Go to your nearest alcohol supplying gas station or bodega every Friday. Take a look at how many people get off of work and buy beer. Now some of the same people who drink alcohol consume marijuana also. Let's say those people also buy 4 grams of whatever kind of strain they want, and price per gram is $25. There's $100 off of 1 person. Let's say there's an average of 20 people a day. There's $2,000 not including taxes. 6 days a week being how Georgia doesn't allow alcohol sales on Sunday. There's an average of $12,000! The math can go on and on and on. But i'm not going to annoy you(whoever is reading) with a bunch of numbers like we're sitting in a math class. But something needs to be done. Healthcare....why not legalize medical marijuana in the state of Georgia? I've contacted alot of representatives and haven't got even a "Thank you contacting me" email or anything. I am one of the people that marijuana does help medically. And also my wife. I was addicted to pain pills and xanax. I quit, went through the TERRIBLE physical withdrawals with marijuana holding my hand. Now, I hardly notice my back. The pain is not so severe and I can do everyday activities and be more productive. My wife on the other hand. She has Chron's disease. And if you have the time google Chron's disease and medical marijuana. It has helped her dramatically. But I guess being in the good ole' bible belt where some people's views on marijuana is just down-right for the devil and the crackheads you see walking around got there because of smoking marijuana. I know, I know comical isn't it? But hey, I know LOTS of middle-aged people who share that same view on the usage of marijuana. Maybe there wouldn't be so much law-enforcement corruption if we were to legalize marijuana? Maybe the sheriff's,mayor's, or other political figures in towns with under 100,000 population wouldn't make the extra money on the side? JUST LEGALIZE IT! Taxation and Regulation! Come on fight for a better tomorrow!!!
