 That's not really true though. People did tons of work for decades trying to legalize it, and then it became a reality when states were desperate enough for the taxes.

 All of that work was completely meaningless because the people making the laws don't care what you think. They will control you any way they can. Also elections are fake.

 I agree with you. There was many people for years doing work for the legalization to happen. It's not even done yet. And they imprisoned citizens into slaves. Private prisons are a thing. This original post is irresponsible. Full of angst but hurts 🤕 it's readers who weren't old enough to see the long drawn out situation and profiteers
