hmmm, we aren't there yet. only two states. Hell mmj has been legal for close to two decades now in cali and it still isn't legal in half the states. I'd say we have a long way to go.
plenty of politicians fighting back. They will lose eventually, but it makes it slow going.

Traditionally, bad economic times usually result in an increased societal liberalism. People who are on shaky ground tend not to stick their noses into their neighbors' business. Also,many of the legislative pragmatics are eyeing it as a source of revenue. So we may just be one boom away from a rollback. Time will tell. I could see it going either way.

Battles may remain but the war is already won.

Are you saying "Yay! Poverty!" ???

Maybe we could bus all the poor, state to state, depressing each states economy to the point that they have to legalize.

agreed, the longer we stay in this recession the better chance we have of getting it legalized.

they say the economy is getting better. i'm not sure which county in america this is happening in though ;) lol

i'm not saying that. It is what it is. At least there may be some benefit to this slump our country is in.

One thing is for sure if things were going well here the movement wouldn't go very far.

The fact that the advances in mmj and the full on legalization movement coinciding with the sorry state of affairs america is in

is no coincidence.

I was askin' ... And, saying, if it'd work, maybe we could do it! Caravan that shit, dead style. Set up shop in ALL the parks! The 'burbs have THE BEST PARKS! Some of 'em have heated benches! (Not really, but we'll tell 'em that.)

EDIT: In seriousness, it's not even hidden any more. It's got a better than OK chance of making it here, full legal -- CO. style. Because CO. generated a reported +1M in taxes on January 1. From legal Marijuana.

We're an expensive place to live, but a poor poor place. Low pay for skilled work, a lot of military, although friendly to tourists definitely not carpet bagger friendly. We're very close to the top in cost of living. There's a huge problem with taxes, and wages. Legal marijuana would get rid of a lot of the bullshit, and bring in a LOT of income. I found out that in the downtown area, weed's treated like meth. People flip shit. In the nicer neighborhoods, on a cool fall day, you can smell musky skunk burning all over. It was introduced in legislature, for constitutional amendment, bypassing our anti-marijuana governor. There are stories constantly about the boon marijuana's been for a couple towns "near" the New Mexico boarder. If tech. were here still, if IBM, Intel, and Microsoft hadn't overbuilt and then closed up shop, we wouldn't be near legalizing.

Dramatic revenue upticks in quite a few states.

hmm, do those figures accurately measure the avg. wage though? I mean we have lost all of our good paying jobs. And they have been replaced by 7-9$ hr jobs all over this area.

manufacturing is a big part of this area and avg. pay is stagnant....if they are hiring at all.

I think you are correct. Never look a gift horse in the mouth. At least something good may come from it.
