^ yes it takes away money from the gov't but makes money for the owners of the prison, in a private "for profit" prison. i'm not saying this is the ONY reason, or even a big one really, i mean how many people are really locked up for weed in comparison to all other crimes, but i'm just saying it is one more factor. (one more cow) :rastasmoke:

I'm all about not just legalizing weed, but legalizing harder drugs too... not because I want to use those drugs, but because I think we as a society should help addicts, not put them in jail.

^ Thank you, I guess I first heard about the private prison industry while reading about how Hillary Clinton is a large shareholder in some large prison company. I can't remember the name off hand. I don't know if that was just internets
rumor or not but I guess it would all be on the SEC filing site. I might have to do a quick search tommorow at work. :smokin:
Best of luck with Law School. I keep promising myself I will get my JD someday, too.
