What am I?

Chances are just the typical person as the parties themselves just cater to the extremes on either side.

FWIW pretty much the same, except I'd like to see a slow down or a bit more enforcement going on with immigration. Now that ICE in a lot of cases is not bothering to pickup for deportation persons detained on all sorts of crimes. (Larimer County Sheriff talking about the problem recently.) Seen too many cases of multiple DUI/no insurance. Ones getting out of jail with multiple serious crimes etc.

Likewise I started fairly ok pot whatever. And making it federally ok would probably help spread it out, but the explosion for right now of that industry has brought continued real estate rising costs, entire areas of town that reek. But more importantly while there may be a lot of taxes, commerce, and business/jobs. Theres also a bunch more homeless coming into the state than before, as well as a ton of mcdonalds day job, light crime by night younger crowd coming in too. So basically I think theres just too much of the shit tier of humanity that comes along with pot proliferation. Keep it banned, maybe misdemeanor it would help, but embracing openly I think only serves to promote these unhirable loser 20 somethings in our society.

For the last aside from seeing some statistics, I again get to see it. Listening and watching the people walking into social security and other benefits offices and watching the street traffic around dispensaries. I said it elsewhere but I'm sickened watching if lucky 1 out of 4 people on disability/ssi payments at all seeming like they be be in need of it. The rest are tatoo faced, all the money on cigs/alch, 200lbs overweight, or just plain normal but claim some unprovable condition.

You pointed out some of the reasons I support federal legalization of it. Colorado wouldn't be seeing people swarm here for the whole marijuana thing if it were legal everywhere.

Personally, I don't feel marijuana legalization would be any worse than the alcohol that is already legal. And the revenue generated from it on a federal level could go towards something like reducing the national deficit.
