Some people do have principles

Well Trump did push the $2,000 post election and if we are going to ban substances, we should have started with alcohol.

His push to raise the age for nicotine purchase and e-cigarette regulation was also a put off to many.

I believe we have been there and done that. Didn't work out too well.

That's my point though. To say that we have to keep pot banned because of "principle" is jut silly.

Oh, I see now. You were being ironic. It looked to me as though you were seriously advocating booze prohibitiion. Carry on, please.

I watched the round table on e-cigarettes. He was the only one that said he didn’t like the regulation because it would give the Chinese and black markets the option to fill a void. Also, he listened very carefully about jule’s anticompetitive behavior but didn’t believe in the stomping out of small businesses

But he still found himself on the side of raising the age to 21 nationwide which, though I don't use nicotine, I disagree with. Nicotine is one of the least of our worries.

Fair, but I’d rather them make it harder for kids to start smoking tobacco (since it’s easier to quit the later you start) than put a blanket ban on pot and other natural “drugs” labeled as schedule 1s in contradiction to all science
