    Marijuana legislation has less to do with marijuana as more to do with prisoners in prison for marijuana use, distribution, and or possession. It’s a step toward decriminalization of most drugs which accounts for up to 25% of state facility incarceration depending on the state. Why the fuck am I paying tax dollars to keep a drug user in a cell? Why would you want to pay to feed them 3 meals a day?

      You missed the forest for the trees. He failed to get this passed. It’s absolutely fluff to reach to Biden’s failures in a list of his greatest accomplishments.

      Obviously I agree on decriminalizing marijuana, but that’s not what my comment or the broader discussion was about.

      I don’t know if you genuinely missed the point of my comment, or if you’re just arguing in bad faith.
