Legalizing pot

I don't understand la la land states and politicians. They legalize pot which destroys brains cells and the center of pleasure making people dopey and stupid, but they outlaw vaping (inhale and exhale the vapor produced by an electronic cigarette with some nicotine in it) which from what I can see helps people wean themselves off cigarettes, but is more difficult to tax. Neither practice sounds beneficial, but pot has plenty of studies showing its harm, and there's very little research on vaping. I'm sticking with the tax theory.

Very well said. It is a tax issue on both sides. Pot taxes have every tax and spend government swooning. The tobacco industry is behind a good deal of anti-vaping moves. They want to see e-cigarette products taxed at the same level as tobacco products.

Thanks Dan. That makes sense--in a way.
