why would anyone say it should be handled by government?
this is the #1 problem with the world.
the government needs to do only a few things, and regul;ating every day life is NOT ONE OF THEM.
the government doesnt sell beer, Budweiser does, why should they sell Marijuana?
Like Medicare and Social Security, government bullshit.
