I had to go to Spokane today for some bizness. While there I saw this billboard on a main thoroughfare just north of Gonzaga University. (I wasn't at Gonzaga, just in the area)

I also saw a different billboard advertising a different marijuana retailer on US 395, a major federal highway, on the way to Spokane.

When I was a mere tyke the very possession of marijuana was a felony. Now we advertise its sales on our roadways.

From paranoia that the cops will catch you to completely legal in less than one generation .

Quite amazing!

Jaded soul that I am, I can think of at several reasons for marijuana being made legal:

a new product to tax

there are better tools available today to justify intrusion of the government and erosion of your rights in the name of public good

while there are valid medical uses for marijuana, big pharma isn't interested because there would be too much competition

During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
