Na, we'd all just be really late getting to work. But our boss wouldn't care because he's high too. And every office will have a nacho dispenser. Traffic on the way home? Nobody cares because everybody is high. They'll build fast food joints every quarter mile, and line the sides of the road with hostess snacks. Highway signs will be replaced with giant LCD flat screens playing Go Gabba Gabba, Power Rangers and Teletubbies 24/7.

Perfect world.

Perfect world.

The office would have a juice dispenser like in McD's, so you can cure your thirst at anytime. We would have offices full of bean bags and playstations for breaks too. And a cheeseburger making chef.

However, you don't know if you're gonna be okay after casually smoking cannabis a total of ten times in your lifetime.

I would say that there are many things one can consume, from caffeine to peanuts, which you can't know beforehand how they will affect you. Nevertheless, as long as things can be regulated and people can be made aware of the risks, I see no problem with adults trying them if they so desire. This issue of regulation is actually an excellent reason to support legalization over simple decriminalization as well in my opinion.

Er... that seems like an odd criticism to make considering that the post you're referring to was actually just a response to a not particularly substantive little remark from you. I have to admit I'm a little surprised by the personal attack as well.

I think if we give all of congress a box of weed cigars and just tell them they're Cubans we'd have a much better chance of getting pot legalized.

Exactly the point I was making about allergic reactions to alcohol.
