Inode, > At any rate, I believe any employer who wants to drug test any employee for any reason ought to have that right, and ought to be able to fire the employee for refusing to submit.

Well it won't be long before said employer gets sued by the fired employee. The judge's ruling only applied to state workers, but it can easily set a precedent for banning drug testing done by employers in the private sector.

> I also believe there is no way in hell marijuana legalization would result in anywhere near the misery inflicted by its prohibition.

I haven't been made "miserable" by the prohibition of pot. I know you have, but those are the consequences of messing with that s--t.

Get rid of the consequences and watch that s--t turn into a right, then an entitlement. Sound far-fetched? Maybe just as far-fetched as a judge saying the state of Florida can't drug test their workers. Oops ...
