Absolutely, give someone 2 red bulls who has never had caffeine before and see if they act differently. People just don't see the effects because it permeates our society so completely. When I cut out caffeine, I went through some pretty rough withdrawal.

headed there myself. i work hard and abstain ANYTIME IM NEAR THE SHOP OR WOULD HAVE TO GO THERE ANYTIME SOON. BUT it helps to unwind at the end of the day.

its not judgement altering.

Don't know. I see your point but...it still feels like "one of these things is not like the other"

I too believe it should be leagalized and tax the living shit out of it.


Get the cost to below the current national average in street value and it should help states and government create some needed revenue.

Technically, anything we put in our body affects our brains. But I don't think caffeine affects our minds, if that makes any sense.

Slightly off topic, but I wonder if we could make everything legal and tax it at the cost to society. Victims would get reimbursed and the government would take a little off the top to cover costs.

Murder? - Go ahead, and you just have to pay the cost of that person's lifetime earnings and value to their family. Government gets another 5 percent or so. And maybe there'd be some savings by not having prisons. Vagrants would be free!

Speeding? Go ahead, and you just have to pay the expected value of accidents to yourself and others, and I guess the cost of stress to other drivers. Since it's so common, non-speeders would get a tax break each year, and speeders would pay extra.

Want to do cocaine? Just pay the expected cost of associated crime, loss of productivity, and rehab. Cocaine users would pay money, their families would get some pain and suffering money, and of course Uncle Sam would get some.


Stealing wouldn't really work.

I was totally being a smart ass. The caffeine comment was a smart ass comment from the start. I would never advocate that regardless of the rest because as Zach said, one of these things is not like the other.

Pot smokers have a weird sense of humor. :D

Well it is classified as a psychoactive drug, so I would think it's safe to say that current academia disagrees with you.

Ah this is so tired.

The only ones concerned with legalizing marijuana are the potheads in the first place. They keep banging that drum and they keep wasting their time.

Drugs are bad....mmmkay?
