Yeah yeah, but "10 pots" is not what you would say. 10 joints, maybe. Not "pots."

Sugar won't make you suffer as much after you stop consuming it as heroine or metamfetamine so if we can call sugar a drug, it is a very soft one

Not in the long run. Of course heronine or meth are far more dangerous substances.

But that's the thing. It's more practical to tax it than ban it.

Probably the same for drugs.

I am aware of that but I'm not a big fan of drug taxation. I mean if you live in a nation with public healthcare than I agree with that but my ideal is nation with low taxation

I mean, technically, we all know how to vaporize metal. It’s just really hard.

just make going to rehab easier and have the FDA make sure shit isn't poisonous (heroin? fine. krokodil? not fine)

for god's sakes we let people drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes, why not the rest of it too, as if those weren't bad enough - just tax 'em and rake in tons of revenue, have awareness campaigns, don't let people operate heavy machinery if they aren't sober, and prosecute them if they do illegal shit while they're high... not that difficult

Because Marijuana was used by black people and hippies which were (and sometimes still are) supposedly enemies of the state.

Same for LSD, Mushrooms and so on. Because it could break conditioning, brainwashing, and also led people their own experiences with higher beings. Thus another threat to the false order.

So both got outlawed.

People were smoking weed in the USA before hippies

As those experiences with higher beings, common you are high. We all know what happens to your brain when you get high from weed or LSD and Mushrooms and I am pretty sure that the reason why they got outlawed was not this.

Also few states legalized weed after the end of hippie era

the thing is, after you smoked a cigarette you are conscious whereas after LSD you can do various dangerous things to you or to people around you without knowing. We need to regulate it somehow so it is as safe as possible

Well we could continue arresting people who are out of control in public because not doing that was never on the table.

Not much to be honest. The American jail system is basically just modern day slavery.
