vote yes. it's inevitable. don't fight it lol. i dont think it'll pass this time around tho...
if you can drink a beer and drive away from a bar, you should be able to the same with pot. enforcing DWI will be tougher though, as it stays in the system so long.
taxing it will help oyur shortfall in CA
it will eliminate a lot of black market situations. did you know that in amsterdam, where pot is legal, all OTHER heavier drug ovwerdoses are lower than any other country (source: drugs inc, nat geo special 2 day ago) This is because it is sold ina controlled environment....not pot in the left hand and heroin in the right (an extreme example...but I know first had that dealing with pot dealers opens the doors to EVERYTHING else...)
The $$ spent trying to stop its importation from canada an mexico will diminish, as it wont be 'as' profitible to do those things (this is a bit longer term...once it is legalized everywhere...for now, it wont make a diff)
the $$ wasted on jailing pot offenders can go to a good cause.
the list goes on
