“Can we open a window? It’s awfully smoky in here…”

I couldn’t make this up…

On the “Financial Stability” topic the three most popular questions were:

GOLD DOOBIE**: ”Would you support the bill currently going through the California legislation to legalize and tax marijuana, boosting the economy and reducing drug cartel related violence?”
Anthony, Warrington, PA      
 
SILVER DOOBIE: “Has the administration given any thought to legalizing marijuana, as a cash crop to fuel the economy? Why not make available, regulate, and tax something that that about 10 million Americans use regularly and is less harmful than tobacco or alcohol.”
Sarah, Atlanta, GA   
 
BRONZE DOOBIE: “Growing up I have noticed many around me always talk about legalization of marijuana, and I always thought, why not put a tax stamp on it. If marijuana was legalized it could really change a lot of things. America had the same problem with Alcohol.”
Peter McNamara, Minneapolis, MN
