Colorado survey shows what marijuana legalization will do to your kids

I don't give a **** what Libertarians support, I'm a democrat. Again, all you want to do is make an ass out of yourself and argue.

Did you see all that tax revenue? We are so AWESOME! Really, that is how you people sound. You run around talking about the right of the people to smoke pot and then finish it off drooling over tax revenue. You completely miss the ****ing point.

Did liberals really legalize pot because they think people have a right to smoke pot or did they do it to control pot through regulation and taxes?
 
Do liberals think government has authority to control who can sell a legal product?

Yes, do so some libertarians.
Do liberals think pot should be taxed?

Yes, do so some libertarians.
Do liberals constantly go on and on about how much tax revenue the state gets from pot sales?

Yes, do so some libertarians.
Do you think any of this stuff sounds like something libertarians support?

Some libertarians support it, not matter how you squeal and whine. Being a libertarian isn't an all-or-nothing proposition.
Even when liberals pretend to be more like libertarians they fail horribly.

Libertarianism clearly has you confused. What can I clear up for you about it?
 
Yes, do so some libertarians.

Really? So you're telling me that libertarians support government licensing? You do realize that government licensing is the government taking your rights and then selling them back to you, right?

Yes, do so some libertarians.

So libertarians support sin taxes? No, they don't.

Yes, do so some libertarians.

:lamo No, the only other people that champion taxes like liberals is their socialist friends.

I bet you argue with your own damn self. Excuse me while I smoke a bowl. Have a good day.

How much did you pay in taxes? Was the seller licensed with the state? I sure hope you didn't acquire that pot from just some guy that wanted to sell some pot. :lol:

So what? Again, there are varying degrees to which people subscribe to small "L" philosophical libertarianism.
So libertarians support sin taxes? No, they don't.

Merely calling it a 'sin tax' is irrelevant to the fact that some libertarians don't have a problem with minimal taxes on goods sold. MJ is just like hammers in that regard. Your cutsie-poo word games just show how little you know about this and how out of your depth you are.
:lamo No, the only other people that champion taxes like liberals is their socialist friends.

Yawn. You have zero clue what you're talking about. No one said libertarians are 'championing' taxes. Please be less dishonest.

Please find me a libertarian that supports government licensing.

How much tax revenue did it collect? What do taxes in the market place act to do? Hell, what do taxes in general do? When you tax something chances are you will get less of it, so taxing pot means you will get less ________.

Yawn. You have zero clue what you're talking about. No one said libertarians are 'championing' taxes. Please be less dishonest.

So besides liberals who else is bragging about the amount of tax revenue the state is getting from pot? Are libertarians doing this?

Why? What would it matter in terms of this conversation. Just because you can't conceive of one, doesn't mean they're not out there. You could be talking to one right now.

Irrelevant to what I stated.

Again: utterly irrelevant. There is not reason that a libertarian (or anyone else) would have to 'brag' about how much tax revenue a state gets from pot. One could see is as a necessary compromise doesn't need to be bragged about.
 
Republicans will not be anywhere near the White House anytime soon either. Guess who will decide this issue?

I don't discount that, but you are counting your chickens before they come home to roost. ;)

What are dems waiting for? Why haven't they done something by now? What makes you believe they will act?

I could be totally wrong; it could be a republican landslide, but I don't think so. I am confident. If I am wrong, it won't be the first time.
