Thinking for myself. When was the last time you saw a liberal do that?
::I see that Northwest [http://www.conservapedia.com/index.php?title=Marijuana&curid=7524&diff=1412346&oldid=1412214 reverted] (without any explanation). I'm not very interested in the content, so I won't take sides (at least for now), but both of you should discuss this. I will say, however, that the sources don't seem unreliable, so maybe the content can just be moved further down? --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 20:33, 4 April 2018 (EDT)

:::Hello '''Northwest''', you didnt' provide an edit summary, so can you let us know where we're off here? The passage about cancer, as noted, has a liberal wishy-washy "maybe this, maybe that" and fails to cite appropriate medical literature. And the passage about murders makes a broad statement and then over-focuses on one fringe example without even a clear connection made. Inarguably we can find some documentation of crimes and accidents caused under the ''influence'' of marijuana (the point at hand) so we weaken our argument by supporting a broad sweep with a sole example, particularly given that the terrorist's motivation was Islamism, when we could easily find better examples of killers operating under marijuana-influenced psychosis. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. [[User:DavidLReyes|DavidLReyes]] ([[User talk:DavidLReyes|talk]]) 21:26, 4 April 2018 (EDT)

== Can we talk about taxes? ==
Marijuana is extremely comparable to alcohol in states where it is legal. Obviously, neither of these drugs would be legal in ideal circumstances, but does the tax revenue generated for the general good outweigh the costs to public health? I genuinely don't know. The liberals would say yes (they like to over-simplify things) but I'll be researching this soon and come up with a conclusion of my own- very well sourced, of course. --[[User:PiousOne|PiousOne]] ([[User talk:PiousOne|talk]]) 00:16, 11 July 2019 (EDT)
