So I think we're sitting around our limit right now. If it was grown in say, the middle of nowhere (old clearcuts perhaps?) then energy use wouldn't be much of an issue, but you'd probably want to hire security.

another pro I thought of is quality control. I know one of my friends got a joint off some guy that was laced with coke, whatever that's called. It messed him up a bit and he didn't find out til later what it was.
im not so sure about this one...putting cocaine (costs more) into a joint (marijuana: costs less) seems very non cost efficient. and its not like dealers in vancouver cant get customers.

anyways, i see legalizing it as a pro, but i highly doubt it will become a reality, unless major companies start investing in marijuana. which they wont.

best thing to do? spark up a dutch and just laugh.
