Legalization will inevitably lead to Big Tobacco taking over Big Pot, the big government types will see it as a new revenue stream.. They have the money and the clout to do what Big Alcohol did.....corner the market. You can bet along with legalization "of use" growing your own will become VERY illegal. Having a still can land you in jail unless you meet all the regulations and have prior approval of paperwork to operate a distilled spirits plant.

But you can homebrew beer and wine. SO its unlikely homegrowth for personal will be entirely done away with. Restricted? Sure. Done away with entirely?

Yes, I am talking about money. Property seizure is quite lucrative for the Government, just another great revenue stream. That won't change, they'll take everything you have.

One can get away with it with alcohol, but Pot requires electricity hogging grow lights. That shows up on your electricity bill.

Solar roof. Hides the heat signature from the lights too since solar is so hot.

If one buys weed from someone else ya don't know what the hell the grower sprayed on it to keep the pests like spider mites, thrips, aphids, white flies and caterpillars off the plants, all of which will eat the pot as it grows. One also doesn't know what the hell the grower sprayed on it to keep the diseases like botrytis, powdery mildew, leaf septori and rust off it either. The goal for the grower is the biggest yield possible. Who know what sort of chemical compounds are created when pesticides/fungicides are burned.

Which is why you smoke hydroponically grown weed that they don't spray pesticides on and get your dope from a trusted source.
Not to mention: All you bring up could be efficiently and simply cured by a legal, taxed and regulated market. See CO, or alcohol. Heard of Jakeleg? No? Wonder why? Its because booze you buy at the store is not tainted or made out of antifreeze.

But for reasons that I cannot yet fathom, the GOP handed Obama all that he wanted with the "Corker-Cardin Bill".

https://www.conservativereview.com/commentary/2015/04/corker-cardin-iran-bill-is-unconstitutional

Essentially, instead of such a treaty needing a 2/3rds Senate majority to be adopted, it is now Law unless the Senate can rally a super-majority of 67 to override a POTUS signature. Meaning all it takes now is POTUS and 34 Senators to make such law.

This was heralded as a mistake by many Conservatives, and a violation of the Constitution, when passed by the Senate. I cannot make sense of it from a GOP point of view. But they did it !! Was this to set up the Dems in 2016 ? 12 Dem Senators will be able to vote against Obama on this, preserving some notion of being pro-Israel, yet still have it be law. Hard to find a favorable political angle for what the GOP did. They gave Obama a blank check on this deal.

Pathetic.

NB Not you papastox, you actually asked the question (though frankly you probably could have taken the time to look it up yourself)

They won't cut deep enough to satisfy the Germans and the Germans give no indication they will cut any more debt since they have done that previously just to end up back here again. Greece just needs to bite the bullet and leave.
