I posted this idea on another forum and got a lot of ideas and feedback whats your ideas.
I've had this idea of legalizing pot that would help the government and help the war on the real bad drugs. If the gavoernment were to legalize marijuana, grow and sell it themselves it would cut the war on drugs in half.
My idea-
1. a) Legalizing pot is like owning a car. The government could make you pay $50/month for a license to smoke pot and you would have to be 21. When the month license is up you have to get another one.
b) They would have to take personal information about you such as phone, address, soc. sec., and etc. so they would have your name on registry, sort of like what they do with urchasing a gun.
2. They would only allow you to but so many a bags a week, like 3 - 1/8 a week. When you would go purchase some they would put in the computers when, where, and how much you bought so they have it on record. So if you bought your allowed amount you couldn't go back and get more.
3. a)To stop normal civilians selling weed the gov't could sell an 1/8 at $25-30. This would make it pointless for pot dealers to keep selling pot it would put them out of buisness. One problem solved.
b) Because pot would be so cheap and legal drugees(not potheads) would stop using harder drugs and just stick to pot. Two problems solved.
4. With all this extra money coming into the gov't the taxpayers won't be paying for the war on drugs no more because the gov't would have enough money from pot sales to use it to stop use and sales of harsher drugs and stop non-gov't funded pot being soled and consumed.
---------
If the gov't was smart they would do this because it would have more money and it would be hard for young kids to get there hands on pot because with a limited supply not too many people would want to give their bags up. So for young people who want marijuana to be legalized, it's almost better it doesn't get legalized. (Legal, Cheaper) Money vs Quanity (A holottaweed, possesion tickets/jail)
Please post comments on my idea or different (logical) ideas to make marijuana legal.
