    Default At last a bit of common sense

    http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/216533/...arijuana-sales

    El Presidnete is planning to sell dope along with milk etc at the general store the only World government doing it.
    It will be interesting to see what happens next and if it is a big success which i think it will be, will other Feds follow suit , it is good to see some one after all theses years finally realise the old system does not work and I think novelty value of being a dope smoker will wear off meaning less kids wanting to try.
    Good luck I say.

    Thanks Glen for alerting ASF to this important announcement.

    From the Telegraph UK.

    Under the plan backed by President Jose Mujica's leftist administration, only the government would be allowed to sell marijuana and only to adults who register on a government database, letting officials keep track of their purchases over time.
    Profits would reportedly go toward rehabilitating drug addicts.
    "It's a fight on both fronts: against consumption and drug trafficking. We think the prohibition of some drugs is creating more problems to society than the drug itself," Defense Minister Eleuterio Fernandez Huidobro told reporters late on Wednesday.
    Fernandez said the bill would soon be sent to Congress, which is dominated by Mujica's party, but that an exact date had not been set. If approved, Uruguay's national government would be the first in the world to directly sell marijuana to its citizens. Some local governments do so.
    The proposed measure elicited responses ranging from support to criticism to humour.
    Uruguay may be the first of many governments to see sense.

    Even if it doesn't work at least he tried and should;d be given a medal for trying.
    Soon the Bible thumper's will be out proclaiming the world will end , only concern if it works will others follow.
    This is genuine progress employing farmers , farmers buying machinery etc and all making money and be happy to boot.
    Maybe the boat people from here will go over and open up a few 7/11's.
