Manpower? We have thousands without jobs, that can be manpower there, but then again, we aint got no money to pay them and minimum wage in this day and age is a joke. They should just say They aint got no money instead of blaming the people and taxing them for every little thing, we are already spending double on what a product is actually worth and they also want to tax.

Maybe these politicians should disclose their tax information to prove to us that they are paying taxes. They have to lead by example, how can Ishmael be owing 7000 one day and 110,000 then next ? It should be a standard for politicians/candidates to disclose most of their business as it relates to taxes, and business background for transparency purposes to avoid all this dishonest mix up, so that their is no secrecy and more credibility. The candidates in America have to do this in order to run. This government is full of loop holes. They have to lead by example, they cant expect us peasants to be taxed for everything if they are the leading tax dodgers.

@rory You are just as bad as the uneducated who think they know everything, dont have a say if you dont support. Spreading your ignorance is only showing more and more why it shouldnt be illegal. You have made not one valid point yet, but you hate it so much. The point of being against something is understanding why you are, a biased person is an ignorant person.

That will really boost tourism in a different arena, put out police officers to guard the cafes just like how they guard the gas stations. Not only will they be enjoying the herb, but they will enjoy it in paradise as well.

and of course your ignorant ass wont.

Apparently its the opposite of what you said. One of the main reasons for its prohibition was that they believed that it gave persons anti government tendencies. Example the 'hippy' movement, made up of peace radicals, where marijuana was not the only drug they used, they also used LSD and other drugs.

As far as the kids go, they would have to be prescribed and not use it without supervision. Restrict it to 21 if it becomes recreational.

we have no air power, yet the Bahamas wants to own their own airspace. Air power and reconnaissance is needed. Maybe we can buy some outdated jets, and encourage more pilots to train to be defence force airmen. It will be a great addition and upgrade for our powers.

Trust me, the criminals are only benefiting from marijuana because of the political bans on it. If you strangle any business the prices go up, business law. You make it legal right now, your 'criminals' or 'violent murderers' will lose money in marijuana. You are the one that lacks knowledge and you are greatly mistaken, because not all persons that deal herb are 'violent murderers'. That is so ignorant of you to say, a very stereotypical viewpoint, and you should be ashamed. You need a history lesson so you can learn the truth about cannabis prohibition instead of being gullable to some political propaganda.

Yup, the only problem is stereotype and politics. They absolutely cannot stop a plant from naturally growing, why waste money trying stop something natural when you can adopt it and benefit from it both in the health arena and that industrial arena. Coke, Meth, Heroin, X, Molly's all are scientific experiments designed to destroy the mind and body. There is absolutely no additive but God's refreshing water and rejuvenating sunlight that creates the discriminated marijuana.
