if it became legal to buy and the government sold it and they taxed it i would still buy it. growing good buds takes a lot of effort, where as buying it would be just like how people buy alcohol, where you just go and pick up a box of blunts of whatever when you feel like it. growing takes too much effort and time. the thing is, i know a lot of people, including myself sometimes, that go entire days being stoned. if it was legal do you think more people would be stoned all the time. would it then become a "problem" like alcohol and you'd have to go to Marijuanaholics Anonymous meetings and shit? i dunno i'm pretty blazed right now. i agree that it should just be decriminalized. whoever said that no matter if its legal or not people are still going to grow it and sell it. if it was decriminalized it would be basically legal anyways.
