[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 656546, member: 59"] You bring up so many good point CJ. Ohio is going for recreational. It's a real sore spot for many because they want to allow only ResponsibleOhio to grow and sell it. So it becomes a monopoly for only the few who stand to make millions. They are flooding the state with campaign material trying to convince everyone of the merits of legal pot. The employer part is very dicey. My daughter works for a company that does drug test. I am sure she thinks that if it becomes legal they can't say anything about her using it. And yes it will still be illegal to drive under the influence. But that is not easily determined either. We were in California last month and pot was on every corner. Of course she made friends with a bartender at a comedy show we went to and stayed after smoking and drinking with him. I was so angry I wanted to leave her there the next day when we came home. It reminded me that she is still an addict and pot could become a big problem in her life very easily. Alcohol already is so this is just one more vice to spend her money on. SWOT I completely agree with you, it is out of our hands. It will be legal everywhere soon. But I will never believe it is not harmful. Any mind altering substance is addictive to my daughter. I saw her on pot plenty of times and would never ever think she was capable of driving or working or any other thing that required concentration. It made her nasty and lazy and depressed. [/QUOTE]
