Well, that proves my point. As I said, " I would rather deal with a person High on Pot than drunk " and " it is easier to get hooked on Pot because it is as easy as smoking a cig with instant gratification and no hang over "KEN-JENNINGS wrote:

You can't be a functional alcoholic. You can be a functional pothead (like me). I don't need to look up a study to answer that.
I can go to work, smoke all day long and get my shit done. If I were to drink all day long I would just sit on bf2s all day and shoot off one-liners.
Now if both are legal, which would be a bigger drag on society? Pot. More people will do it. In the morning. All day long. At work. .......
That's a pretty weak argument. If we use existing laws as a precedent, then it would simply be a matter of making the use of pot illegal in many situations.Lotta_Drool wrote:

For example, you couldn't drive while on it or go to work on it. If you did either, you'd get in trouble (either with your work or the law).
Laws generally work much better as conditional restrictions rather than all out bans.

I know where you're coming from, but look at how many people drink and drive. Most people don't drink all week long or all day long, but come friday and saturday night they might drink and drive because those are the only two days they drink because they don't want the hang over on a work day.Turquoise wrote:

Enter Pot, I can be high all day long as a cook and nobody cares. Every day of the week. Of course I will drive stoned because I am stoned 24/7. People do this now while it is illegal.
There is idealism and there is reality.
Idealy all drugs should be legal and taxed and people week minded that do it now will do it while regulated and crime goes away and everything is better.
Reality is that this would not be the way it is, you think the ghetto is bad now.....
How would pot be a bigger drain on society? Look at the health figures. Look at insurance figures. So what if people smoke pot all day long? In the end, an unmotivated person is just that, regardless of what they put in their body.

The effects of alcohol are much easier to track due to legality and widespread usage.

Only because it is illegal. When alcohol was illegal it was controlled by bootleggers and criminal gangs. Drugs are no different.Lotta_Drool wrote:

Drinkings worse...
I'd much rather someone who is stoned be driving then someone who is drunk.
And as FatherTed put it...
Both are fucking amazing.. especially when mixed

One is legal, the other one isn't.
It's pretty unambiguous.
If both were legal, I might have a different view.

The reality is that the War on Drugs costs far more than what legalizing and taxing pot would.Lotta_Drool wrote:

If you don't believe me, look at how much Prohibition cost us (and how much organized crime resulted from it).
Didn't anyone here watch the movie Traffic? The War on Drugs is useless, costly, and helps the dealers.
I could make the same argument about alcohol. Should we ban that too?Lotta_Drool wrote:

The point is this.... any intoxicating substance will cost society something in terms of crime, negligence, and abuse. However, if you believe in anything even resembling small government, then it becomes increasingly difficult to support removing a person's ability to make their own judgment call on how to use a substance.
Eventually, you realize that you're essentially trusting the government to be moral in its restriction of your behavior. One of my favorite youtube clips shows the absurdity of looking to the government for moral guidance....
The point is... we all have bad habits. Is it the government's right to tell you what you can and can't use for recreation?
Personally, I draw the line at heroin and cocaine. The only reason I do is because the fears you have of pot are more relevant concerning those substances.
It's an interesting assumption that more people would use marijuana if it were decriminalized.
Both are bad, but being at a university, I see more of the effects of drunken idiots than stoned idiots.

Alcohol is defiantly the more detrimental substance.
Alcohol is by far much more dangerous than marijuana. I don't understand how anyone can see different. Alcohol can kill you. Alcohol kills some 75,000 Americans each year. Marijuana can not directly kill you. It is impossible to overdose on marijuana. There has never been a death recorded from the use of marijuana by natural causes. Society should embrace marijuana and demonize alcohol.
