Are Politicians Finally Catching Up to Public Attitudes About Marijuana?

TalkLeft post is here. See this too.

The recession and its impact on state tax revenues and budgeting may be the excuse that politicians need to shift their public positions from "just say no" to "just tax the smokers." California's Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger this week called for "a large-scale study" to assess the potential impact of legalizing and taxing the recreational use of marijuana in the state. . . .

P.S. I do not smoke marijuana.

I've smoked it in the past but frankly it interferes with my sleep. (Best to smoke not close to bedtime for me.)

If I went to Amsterdam, I might get some hash.
