Right where I want to be
Legalize it, grow it, ration it, regulate it, treat it like alcohol (age restrictions and DUI), and tax out of it. Calculate weed measurements, dosage...

It should cost about the same as cigarettes to manufacture, but the government could tax it up to current street value.

DUI is hard as the tests show any use for up to 45 days. They don’t show if you are stoned at that moment.

Its quite easy to tell if someone is stoned to the point they shouldn't be driving a car. Proving it in a court of law is a different story.

On this subject, I was in Manhattan this weekend and saw several weed trucks. This one was parked right outside Joe's Pizza in Times square when I went for a slice at midnight

Millions of Americans are being told to stay home to help halt the coronavirus spread. While some "nonessential” businesses have been forced to close, some states are allowing marijuana dispensaries and stores to remain open.

MA dispensaries are open. It's hard to believe, in a good way, that something that was illegal just a few short years ago, is now essential. Times certainly have changed.
