   Well, you can stop boggling.   
      
   Realize that CBS (and other major media) is controlled by interests   
   which want the 'war on drugs' to continue. That is, even if legalization   
   were proven to decrease crime, increase taxes while stabilizing   
   society, these interests would object. A lot of money and power is   
   derived from the drug trade.   
      
   The same interests promote political labels and divisions and will do   
   nothing to prevent the demise of the American economy and middle class.
