So tell me, who is gonna determine what's an important job? I'm a Pharmacy Tech. If I screw up and give someone the wrong medication I could kill them. What about an electrician who if he screws up could cause a short and burn down a building and kill the people inside? I personally am in the legalize and regulate camp because I do think there is some medicinal value in cannabis but I see it more as FDA class 3 or 4 drug (along the same lines as vicodin or valium) than being a current card carrying member of one of the states that have okayed it. Here in CO about 10 doctors write 85% of all the MMC's in the state. I pay attention to this because I've been a "legal" drug dealer for almost 25 years. I tried weed in college and didn't like what it did to me. I know people who swear by it for bi-polar disorder and had a friend who died from an accidental fall from a cell phone tower who was most likely self-medicating. I don't think it's as harmless as the supporters would have you believe but it's not the "debbil" that the anti's claim either.
