Default Bi-Partisan Bill To Legalize Marijuana

Finally, we have the Democrats and the Republicans getting together to introduce a bill to raise the nations conscienceness. Far out, man!

Seriously though, Republican Rep. Ron Paul and Democrat Rep. Barney Frank have introduced a bill to legalize marijuana and allow the states to legislate it's use. The bill would limit the feds involvement to smuggling, and eliminate laws against home grown weed to consume or sell.

I actually do not have a problem with this and think it's long overdue, but I don't believe this bill will advance very far. If it actually became law, I believe it would take the incentive out of the smuggling trade and put Mexican cartels out of business, in this activity anyway.

Better to legalize, decriminalize and regulate it use.
