I also favour legalization 1000%, but how practical is that?

In this day and age when government is so entwined in all aspects of
human affairs, decriminalization is the only viable option, and I, for
one can live with that for the following reasons:

1. It removes the stigmatization of criminality,
2. It creates a climate appropriate for enterprise
3. The potential for spin off industry is astronomical

The kind of prosperity that could be created globally would have far reaching consequences affecting everything from violent conflict to eroding environment.

I truly believe that the Tree of Life is for healing nations, and that if the existing political powers just reconsidered their tight assed perspectives on the matter only to the extent of decriminalization that would suffice.

May the spirit of Cannabis remain with us always.
