Prop 19: Should Californians legalize marijuana?
California voters should ask themselves these questions when deciding Prop 19.
Is the prohibition in place for the last 70 or so years succeeding?
Are the benefits of the prohibition of marijuana worth the erosion of civil liberties? (no-knock raids, property seizures, cash transaction recording)
Does the prohibition of marijuana make sense in the context of the legal status of alcoholic beverages, which have the same social costs as associated with marijuana?
Is is possible to ban a weed that will grow almost everywhere?
Which does society the greater harm, organized crime networks or a pot smoker?
