   Legalization No Hoot

   I can't see how pot will ever be legalized in the North American culture.   
   The culture is built upon rules and regulations and if marijuana is no   
   longer illegal, then who will control it?   
   I hear of buying it in stores like tobacco or cigarettes, yes, that is the   
   sale of the refined product. The unrefined or whole product is a bud that I   
   grow, say, legally now, so I don't buy bud anymore. Who else will aftter   
   awhile? You'll have to control seeds, clones, soil, equipment, etc.   
   Some will say those that don't want the hassle of growing, will want it   
   available commercially. I'm sure somebody will lay fat-free buds on tthose   
   people.   
   So how could you market it?   
   You could give a guy life in prison for selling it and nobody will, because   
   there'll be nobody buying it.   
   They will probably have to come up witth some pretty lowball stuff for   
   somebody to take control.
