Does this seem like a better society??


Yes.

It seems like a society where individuals are once again responsible for the decisions they make, where adults are entitled to decide what they want to do in the privacy of their homes as long as they don't hurt anybody else.

It seems like a society where nobody is trying to get my 13 year old hooked on drugs in order to support a huge criminal enterprise. Bayer isn't pushing aspirin to my kids and wouldn't push marijuana to them, either.

It seems like a society where teen gangs no longer have easy access to hundreds of thousands of dollars by committing crimes and killing to protect their economic turf. The President of Rite-Aid doesn't shoot the President of Bartel's Drug over store sites, and wouldn't even if they were allowed to add marijuana sales to their inventory.

Yes, this seems like a much better society.
