neither @ the last one really, people will continue about their day, not every single person is gonna be forced to smoke lol. those who wanna smoke weed already do anyway and more will come out out of the closet so to speak when it passes.

id say amsterdam is a good example kinda. may be a bit weird at first but itll become the norm.
do you smoke weed? you think i should do it? i dunno, im worried that ill get addicted and my grades will suffer does it make you cool?
ya i do, no im not gonna decide whether i think you should do it, thats your own choice. if you have a medical problem that can be helped by it then yes i recommend you use it.

no your grades will not suffer either unless you show up to class high as fk, same thing with alcohol, who the hell shows up drunk? sort your priorities, ie do work first then toke.

@mcminty, im pretty sure the government is gonna tax it in some way or make money out of it. but i think it may be a bit harder to regulate and tax considering some people just may grow it in their own home or have it hidden etc.

Lol, the govt gets tax revenue from the sale of weed therefore it is economically beneficial.. gg with the simplified economics model..

Edit: oh, and if you want to compare it to alcohol.. you should realise that alcohol is one of the most detrimental things to wider society..

only way it will help the ecomony is if they tax it like they do with tabacco, but then people will get it from other sources which avoid the tax increase, such as, where they get it from at the moment, and as the government arent getting their fair share of that wonga theyll most likely make it illegal to either have at all or get it from sources other than taxed ones

situation if weed made legal = situation at moment

Edit: @Uzi was it Glouchestershire or Staffordshire you said you lived near/in when you arent at uni?

my family are based in gloucestershire, yeah. gloucester/cheltenham and the fine-ass countryside around it, i.e. royal forest of dean

any tax would be virtually negligible in the economy to be fair

but you've completely ignored other effects from legalisation; I'd predict dropping effectiveness, employment and productivity, thus higher prices and inflation - hardly economically healthy?

Zing. The negative externalities and societal costs would outweigh any benefits from increased tax revenue.

legalizing weed wouldn't make the working proletariat a collective of stoned morons

television and mass-media is already keeping the masses sedated under an opiate-haze

i dont think legalisation would make as big a difference as people think, the main target audience would be chavs and they are intellectually bankrupt already. i think they should make something more lethal legal just for gene pool cleansing purposes (Chlorine maybe?)

you could legalize any drug tomorrow and it wouldn't do anywhere near as much damage to society as alcohol already does

hell if they sold heroin over the shop-counter you'd struggle to get 45,000 deaths-per-year

alcohol has an impressive strangle-hold on the vices of our western civilization
