Would you rather bud be sold in American style coffee shops, or be treated more like tobacco, and you can buy it from places such as CVS? What are you ideas?
I think that if weed were "legalized" in the sense that most meople mean when they say "legalized" that the price would not drop significantly. In fact, I think that government participation would increase the price of bud significantly through all kinds of new taxes.

Because I do not want government involvement, I am personally opposed to legalization. I would rather see decriminalization, where the government takes a "hands off" approach to the whole issue.
