I'm with you math geek. I think legalizing it is a terrible idea for the economy and the productivity of our workforce. I also 100% agree with bgizzle. I know a lot of 6 figure pot heads and pill poppers. I, myself, don't do drugs but I work side by side with some of the best cracked out electricians you've ever met. Everything in moderation I always say. I tell my guys that what they do on their time is their own business. Be sober at work. I do feel that If you legalize you will have chaos.

Guns are legal, are there random shootings on site every day? Not much chaos, I wouldn't be worried about legalizing marijuana... You're still the boss and would have the same right to fire as you did before |

the sky has not fallen in Colorado or Washington Just because someone takes a toke in the evening instead of beer does that mean they can't be productive?You can take anything overboard. Porn is legal. Messed up plenty of lives but none of us want that banned and if you do I'm confused. You should have the right and think you do to fire who ever for what ever. Shouldn't be just for something in there urine that doesn't show intoxication at all. Blood test yes. Only way to test if they legitimately impaired at that time. If you think Johnny is a terrible employee then fire his worthless arse. " I have a dream that one day a man will be judged by the contents if his character and not the contents of his urine.

Bad analogy, IMO. But like I said, if my guys want to shoot people on their own time then that's fine. When your on the clock you need to be sober and/or not shooting people. I'm not worried about legalization from an employers standpoint as much as I am from a fathers standpoint. |

Smoke it all day!! Just stay off my jobs and away from my kids. It's awkward explaining to a homeowner why the guy doing their electrical work smells like reefer. Or when your kids say, dad, my friends donit and so do their parents. I guess I'm just not ready for the world to change yet.

Just educate them the same way you do about drinking.
As you should anyway. It's easy to " drugs are bad mmmmkay" We reduced cigs use among minors by a big % and didn't jail one adult to do so. Just on a education campaign. Spiral Out |

As a teacher, I also have considerable experience with marijuana smoking students. One's ability in math and science falls drastically when teens begin smoking weed. One's motivation toward education also dramatically tanks. The science is sound on these same points. Marijuana use lowers IQ and significantly reduces educational outcomes, especially when use begins during the teen years. Use among teens in Colorado and Washington has significantly increased since legalization. |

Why would one expect the society level effects to be more rapid than the personal level effects? Weed production in these states is still ramping up to meet increased demand. Once availability, use, and abuse reach their peaks for a period of time, then the effects on society will be felt. I'm estimating about a decade, because that's the amount of time for todays teens to be fully integrated into the workforce and their educational deficiencies to have a real impact on economic productivity.

I have some people that I went to high school with that are pot heads. Graduated in 1991. It's easy for me to keep my kids away from pot. I just explain to them that they will end up like them if they start smoking pot. I think they understand.....
