Ron,

Can you not suggest to your fellow lawmakers that our country is ready for a YES or NO vote on whether to legalize, regulate, and tax cannabis and its derivatives?
President Obama will never do it alone, because he’s afraid of the political backlash. Please, Sir, get with Rep. Barney Frank and introduce a motion that we have a special election. Allow We the People to vote ONCE AND FOR ALL.
Then, we’ll see how the numbers come out…
You get this accomplished, Ron Paul, you may well be elected President in 2012!

Jesse and RyanT, to draft a bill is not that easy. Do you think the people behind the scene would allow that? It’s up to us to change America. Read what Eileen Hackebill, below me, says.

And how do we fix these monopolies?

I am of the view that as long as there is free entry into the marketplace, there can be no monopolies.

Let them tax it and it will become legal. Who will monopolize it when it becomes legal?

Fix the money controlling powers first. Then work on fixing the monopolizers of industries. After these two things are done you might have a chance at avg. Joe becoming a competitor in the hemp biz.

The growing of hemp will bring about new industries!

We have a penal system in this county that has to be filled, therefore legalizing drugs would take that away, what would the police do it they didn’t have someone or something to hassle. There would be less gangs, less murders, how would they be able to keep the prison system filled if they didn’t have petty dealers out there to keep them in business. If it was left up to me if you want to deal in drugs, you would have to carry a license which states what kind of drug you can sell and in what area. If you are outside of your area or dealing in drug you are not licensed to sell then you can be fined on a first offense. They should have to pay taxes as well and provided for the neighborhood in which they sell. They must purchase a building to sell out of where they must display a state license just as any other business. If they want to be the main supplier, that license should also be posted in the house of the dealer in which they supply their drugs. And just like liquor stores, you have to be of legal age to buy.

Yes. This government doesn’t care about the people. They only operate with power by installing fear to keep control over the masses. The reason the weapons of mass destruction can not be found is because it is not guns,bombs, etc…is is FEAR and mind control.
It is time for everyone to WAKE UP, take back our power and our lives. WE THE PEOPLE, remember!? If you haven’t read the Declaration of Independence lately and you have forgotten what is says, do youself and everyone else a favor…read it. It specially says, “governments are instituted among men,deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,-That whenever any government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government,”
Please read the entire thing. Let’s get together and take back our rights and our country! The laws and law makers are out of control. Are you tired of being treated like you have no ability to think for yourself?
Time for Revolution!!

Ok people…Dr. Paul DID draft a bill…with Barney Frank, just last year. It failed. He is doing more than any of you cynical bloggers. He is on TV almost weekly, speaking out against the war on drugs…spreading common sense to the masses. He ALWAYS votes with common sense and NEVER flip-flops on any issue. Show some respect for the ONLY politician in congress that is not only brilliant, dedicated, and honest…but unafraid of ridicule from either side of the political aisle.
