quote: ORIGINAL: Termyn8or Has anyone wondered why prohibition was an amendment rather than just a bill in congress ? T^T If you're talking about the prohibition against alcohol, it's because Congress did not have the authority to outlaw it. And, I'm not sure Wilson would have signed it if they did. Had they done so, the Supremes would have ruled it unconstitutional. The President has no official say in amending the Constitution and the Supremes cannot rule a constitutional amendment unconstitutional.

quote: ORIGINAL: ThatDaveGuy69 Legalise them all! That's the only, legitimate course of action if we consider ourselves a free society. A truly conservative take requires that the government NOT interfere with personal choices, such as what we choose to ingest into our bodies. Regulate and tax it the way we do alcohol. Put an end to our Prison Industrial Complex. Rake in enormous amounts of tax revenue, a large chink of which should go to rehab and education. Put drug-dealing street gangs out of business. Massive reduction in crime. Yes, some will abuse it and they will cause accidents and end their own lives early. That happens now with alcohol but thanks to stricter enforcement and strong public education programs, alcohol abuse is way down from 20 years ago. If we get it all out in the open we can deal with it like adults instead of the constant 12-yo type of knee-jerk reaction I agree with this except for one little detail. Marijuana is one of the easiest plants in the world to grow. It wasn't nicknamed "Weed" for nothing. It can grow wild in all 50 US States and in most of the rest of the habitable world. Once it's legalized, regulation (and the accompanying taxation) will be impossible. The good part of this is that legalization will completely destroy the marijuana market. In all the places where it's easy to grow it, a very large percentage of potheads will be doing so and the vast majority of them will be growing much more than they themselves can smoke. They'll be supplying everybody else who smokes it at a price close enough to free as to be indistinguishable.

quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 My question is, does anything go, or should a line be drawn regards super strength weed. I think you're asking the wrong question. What, exactly, do you think the problem with this "super strength weed" is? Do you imagine it'll get people stoned? Yeah, I'm guessing that's the point. So what? Now... if we want to address actual problems we could start by talking about drug related crimes (which are largely driven by drug related laws). We could talk about addictions (which have little to do with drugs). We could treat the problem scientifically rather than morally. By the way, if I were looking to "draw the line" somewhere based upon something like facts, I'd be looking at big pharma and prescription drug abuse. I'd be jailing the CEO's and the doctors. I mean seriously, we are pushing OPIATES into the hands of millions for profit and almost entirely above board. It's a big problem in the US and low-hanging fruit since we know where the production and distribution channels are.

Now for the benefit of those who don't know, what has changed about the Constitution and/or the limitations of the powers of government by same ? T^T
