I think those who are over a certain age (around 21) who want to smoke should go through an indepth screening process that establishes their background in various numbers of aspects, and establishes their current lifestyle and occupation + credit scores and job performance.

those who meet the requirements will be able to smoke pot legally, and every 6 months must be re-evaluated to make sure that their pot-use isn't interferring with them being a productive member of society.

although I'd personally never use it because i'm a fitness buff and pot is indeed not exactly positive for your health, i also believe that if people want to use it who're productive in society, should have the choice.


Making individual's choices for them and making sure they are a productive member of society. This sounds suspiciously like an Orwellian idea.
