Megan Fox: “Legalize Weed”
June 5th, 2009 by Rick
Another celebrity has come out for the marijuana legalization movement. Hollywood hottie, Megan Fox told British GQ Magazine:
I can’t tell you how much bullshit I’ve been through because I will openly say that I smoke weed. People look at it like it’s this crazy, hippy, (jacked)-up thing to do. And it’s not. I hope they legalize it. [...] And when they do, I’ll be the first person in line to buy my pack of joints.
Say marijuana was legalized and big tobacco or big pharma got their grubby claws on it, then plan on it being less than affordable since the government loves to tax and eventually the state would likely follow their lead. Just like the days of bootlegging during prohibition, it will still be grown by people that would wind up selling it on the black market for less than what you pay at stores or pharmacies.
As long as marijuana equates to some form of currency, it will be a never ending cycle. After all, you can start your own microbrew in the comfort of your home even though most of the alcohol we generally consume are sold in stores and taxed. Would we be able to grow our own plants and do the very same with marijuana?
