>> About 30 years ago, it was theoretically possible to get thirty years in Texas for one joint. But, they've evolved since. Looks like Louisiana hasn't. The problem in LA isn't Jindal. It is the people there. It is what they want. And I'm not advocating elected politicians go against what their voters want. I am advocating, however, that it should not be a federal issue at all, and that most states want more liberal drug policy and their legislatures should comply. It is the same problem that has left us with Obamacare -- elected officials doing precisely what the voters don't want. I see the drug policy and Obamacare as being the same basic problem.
