Great article Tony, thanks for sharing.
Slowly but surely the tide is turning. Not only the attitudes of the general public, but of the politicians as well. Yes, there are many who still will not put their political careers on the line to support decriminalization/legalization, but many others are now willing to step forward. I find it a bit ironic that marijuana should become the biggest states right issue since the American Civil War. In the end I still believe it will be the politician's greed that will lead to full legalization. They are starting to see how much money can be raised through taxation of MJ and that, especially in these down economic times, is what I believe is driving them. As more states allow MMJ and out right legalization, the Federal government will eventually capitulate.
