I don’t have a problem with legalizing pot logically or fiscally, but how do you now tell your kids pot is okay but cocaine, LSD, speed, meth, and X are not?
Of course, if our state politicians cared anything about children at all we wouldn’t even be in a financial situation that welcomes this idea to the table.
That and it sets a precendent for future legalizations down the road in the name of balancing the state budget. It’s not like we can expect them to cut spending or anything.
