Legalize marijuana
A recent article in Herald-Standard pointed out the deleterious effects of marijuana growths. The author explained that all other users, from resource extraction, all other agricultural pursuits, to construction projects must follow rigid environmental regulations.
This is but yet another reason to abandon the flawed current status. Treat marijuana like the agricultural product that it is. I’m sure that once the increased tax and fee revenue starts flowing into the politician’s pockets their self interests will overcome ideology, and they might do the right thing.
