Legalising has nothing to do with getting a better economy. Its about GETTING A BETTER LIFE and NOT CARE ABOUT THE SHIT ECONOMY, cause if we don't care about the economy and money, these douche bag government and bankers will no longer be able to control our lives.
Hahaha, lets just continue letting drug cartels make money and create more gang violence and deaths in the process, even though marijuana hasn't killed anybody on the planet!
Try paying the court a few grand in fines then $60 to test you every week. Then try getting a job while on probation. Don't play it off like it's not a big deal
@huyup123456 how WOULDNT it help the economy? if it was legalized and taxed and regulated, we would rake in BILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR on the taxes.
not only that, we would save even more billions on not having to keep people incarcerated for meaningless things that dont actually negatively effect anyone.
honestly, anyone suggesting that weed should be illegal and alcohol should remain legal is flat out stupid. alcohol is infinitely more harmful to society and people.
"No, I don't think that is a good strategy to grow our economy."
In spite of the billions of dollars of increased tax revenue, as well as all the jobs which would be created for regulation and distribution. I guess the prison industry is more important.
YOU THINK THIS IS A JOKE MR FUCKING PRESIDENT? youll see when were 10 trillion dollars in debt that it isnt... oh wait we are in debt by trillions of dollars wtf you doin nigga get to legalizing
what just happened was obama gave his opinion ( he just answered no) what he didnt do was elaborate why his answer was no. This makes him more of a dumbfuck then what he made out the people to be who asked that question
Of course you don't think it's a good strategy. You haven't used a single good strategy anyone has suggested. Instead, you take your advisement from the same corporate sponsors and special interests that the last fool did because that's what keeps paying all of these snobby fuckers' paychecks.
@TheColdTruth oh yes, noted anti-capitalists, those democrats: bailing out banks, cutting social programmes, recipient of record donations from the finance industry. you probably think all those things are external to capitalism, but they've been there since day one. i challenge you to find a capitalist society that has not had constant government intervention to protect the rich from the poor. you won't be able to, since that would be a logical contradiction: ownership requires a legal system
Hi, good job. I have to let you know what I did when I received my new "YELLOW BOOK" phone directory and found an ad by .drug-free america, again demonizing pot. I TOSSED IT IN THE TRASH, where it belongs. Perhaps if more folks were to do this, the message might get through
That's right Barack, serve your corporate masters well, like the last few presidents ... why break with tradition? IYou are a prevaricator, a hypocritical manipulator for money, betrayer of the trust of 99% of the people in favor of the wealthiest (read feed my campaign) billionaires in the US. You think marijuana should be illegal, but booze and cigarettes are okay. Haha, the jokes on you, millions of people who vote in the US smoke ganja.
look at those people in the audience laughing when he initialy said about it. of courese politics of substances above scientific opinion and research because politions always know what is best. fucking morons hilarious isnt he, im off to go smoke a fatty of white rhino and then its off to university to carry on with my course on theoretical astro physics in the vein hope that one day i might posses 1/100 of the inteligence of these clever people in the crowd.
the arrogance and ignorance of Obama and the audience has me shaking my head. I don't smoke myself any more, but the economic and personal benefits of cannabis has been demonstrated time and again. Our generation will rise up and end the war on drugs; poll after poll has shown a clear preference for ending this insanity. It is people like these who are the real joke, not those wanting to end this tragic and futile war.
Fail Fail Fail.... OK, if not marijuana then AT LEAST HEMP. But NO, this makes too much sense. I'm just so tired of the weak who get pushed around and bought by the corporations who run the world...unlike these guy:
"Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth & protection of the country."
- Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President
"Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed and sow it everywhere."
Its pretty funny when you look around that room to see all those "sophisticated folks just sitting patiently, quietly and respectively, waiting to hear what this man has to say.
At yet as soon as he brings up "legal weed" they all tend to change and laugh, somewhat rejoice to the fact that its such of a silly thought to legalized such a thing.
So funny.
Laugh now you polished shoe'd puppets, but one day we will take over and destroy what you have created.
MICHAEL TSARION IS THE WORLDS PREMIER CONSPIRACY RESEARCHER/LECTURER/AUTHOR. DR. BILL DEAGLE, LEO ZAGAMI, JORDAN MAXWELL AND ALEXANDRE DUMAS PERE ARE HIGHLY INFORMATIVE AS WELL.
the ones that didnt clap after he said no..... pot smokers... that understand pot cant fuck up your life because there in that room right there. legalize it... that doesnt mean everyone will do it... but im gonna have to say... most will
Wow, just look at how uncomfortable they all get about the subject of intoxication. They just start laughing like school kids... How can we be so dishonest about this subject as a society? So much so that it becomes a joke when it was a legitimate question backed by a large portion of the votes? Really makes me feel like we still have so much to learn to understand all that we've created and destroyed as a culture. We're still so young and stupid... well, a lot of us...
How the fuck are people clapping at that? What about that shit about repeating your past if you don't look back at history? Hemp made the world work before Dupont, Anslinger, and Hersh, and now they just look at the issue and chuckle? No...we'd rather probe this rock we're fortunate enough to be on for it's lifeblood than grow a crop and contribute something.This is just impossible to get, why goddamnit? Weeks of fucking healthcare/debt fighting, no fucking progress on the golden goose egg. Sigh
Alright Obama, even though Marijuana is the largest grossing cash crop, higher than fucking corn even. It's an enormous industry with huge potential revenue.
when obama says he doesnt know what that says about the online community, how about knowledge of history and insight? The last prohibition with another popular drug, alcohol did not succeed. The law against canabis fosters cartels because the profit margin is so ludicriously high because of the increased risk they take on. A profit margin so high they are willing to kill. Plus they know they will not get justice in the court system.
Wouldnt people get to lazy if everyone smoked weed, if legalizing it would cause more people to smoke ;) And therefore slow down the world a bit. Sure there would be alot of new jobs and alot of tax money for the land.
Dont get me wrong I'm very opened-minded, I just dont know all the pros and all the cons.
Idiot when he said the word marijuana the people in the background laughed "POT HEADS" :)--~~ there is nothing wrong with weed and that's why the laughed cause they know it's true but dick head Obama has to be the dick and disagree
I didn't see him joke I just saw him be a douchebag and divert the injustice of the drug war into the context of whether it would help the economy to legalize cannabis and not even give a reason for his answer of "no."
Cannabis CAN help the economy because it is among the most useful plants on the planet, and as a drug is far less dangerous than either tobacco or alcohol, and even has medicinal qualities.
He gave no reasons to why it would be a bad idea. When the fuck is the government going to sit down and LISTEN to what marijuana supporters have to say.
I don't smoke weed or do any drugs, but I believe that people have the right of what they put in their bodies. Why is the government playing Big Brother anyway?
Geeeee, someone in a suit and tie telling us that marijuana is a 'joke'. I'm not telling anyone here what to believe, I am however recommend you take a look at what I call 'Suit and Tie' syndrome. You'd be amazed at the cookie cut statements that spew from the mouths of these individuals who for some reason, almost every day of the week, wear the same attire.
Yup all that tax money you would make on weed and crushing all the gangs that sell it would be such a silly idea, haha lets laugh at that and make fun of people who ask real questions ^__^
I hope Obama has made it crystal clear to the youth of this country that it doesn't much matter who you vote for in the current system. The enemy is not Republicans or Democrats. It is the system itself that has been slowly corrupted over the last 200+ years.
they should legalize all drugs in my eyes. It would have a massive effects on all these gangs killing people over drugs. If your weak enough to get addicted to a drug like cocaine or heroin in the first place, it would never matter whether its illegal or not, if the person is willing to do such things to their body, they don't really deserve my tax money going to their rehabilitation homes.
yeah right. No one is gonna want to work if everyone is stoned. You must be dreaming if you think its good for everyone to start smoking pot and waste their fucking life.
@KripDrip my father was smoking pot, doing crack, doing mushrooms and was still earning over 100,000 per year. joe rogan is a super fit guy working daily whilst smoking pot every night. For me marijuana is already legal because if the person is willing to take it, it will never matter whether its legal or not. I've done marijuana 2 or 3 times and it has the shittiest effect on me. I have no interest in ever doing it again, but that's a very subjective view.
So 3 million people with computers and internet access, who have jobs to pay their bills, taxes and for that internet access, wanted to know if you would legalize marijuana, and you respond no to a mild applause in a room full of people who live well beyond their means...Am I in the fucking twilight zone? Our should we not be marching the streets right now?
mock the people that asked the question then say no and dont explain your reasoning at all .. nice strategy, i guess the american citizens who asked this question dont deserve a straight answer cuz there a bunch of stoners
@bannanamasher Half of these people may be stoners and I may be one too but atleast I can use words in the proper context. "There" its "because they are a bunch of stoners" or "because their a bunch of stoners.
@blackstrat6897 first off i was saying obamas a scumbag for the way he answered the question .. stoners arent stripped of their opinions because they smoke weed and its bullshit answers like this that make americans think that the minority of people smoke rather than the majority which is the truth. second its the internet, not a book im trying to publish ill say whichever way i like you got the point
@bannanamasher I agree a majority does smoke, now either way it will be legalized in our short lives one day, alchohol was and that kills people more so than pot.
they dont need to legalize weed cause they are already making tons of money off of cocaine from south american and opium and heroin from the middle east and asia
why dont you care about the person who has bipolar disorter or add adhd or have ternmanal cancer have there medicine?!!!shame on you mr president shame on you!!!
obama you lieng bastard!!!you said the raids on patients and medical dispenceries would stop but now we are seeing a lot of medical dispenseries getting shut down left and right and later in the soon to be future there will only be 100 medical dispenceries in los angles county why mr president why are you not carrying about the sick and the dying?!
The criminalization of the world's most useful and versatile plant, Cannabis/Hemp/Marijuana/Ganja, was Unconstitutional ... a crime against humanity and nature. ~ DNA
The war on drugs has been an utter failure. We need to rethink and decriminalize our nation's marijuana laws. - Barack Obama, January 21, 2004 debate
If millions of people started smoking marijuana they all might start thinking. Thinking about why they let a small group of people control all of the world's resources. Why we waste our lives chasing after pieces of paper that are for some reason deemed valuable. Why they believe everything they hear on television. Why America houses less than 5% of the world's population but houses 25% of the world's prisoners. Why we separate and divide when we should unite. Can't have that, now can we?

Swarms of them will present themselves with more disguises ever taken by even a chief of the Bohemians - as printers, writers, school teachers, etc. If ever an association of people deserved eternal damnation, on this earth and in hell, it is this Society of Loyola (1816).
@himaru21 "The minority, the ruling class at present, has the schools and press, usually the Church as well, under its thumb. This enables it to organize and sway the emotions of the masses, and make its tool of them."

@himaru21 "Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT owing NO allegiance and acknowledging NO responsibility to the people. To destroy this invisible government, to befoul this unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today." PRESIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT, 1906
@himaru21 its not marijuana who makes ppl think but ppl who dosent want to think havent u seen old ppl debate on a barber shop or a small pop where they drink beer etc they always think whats the most apropiate to think so every1 thinks hes a normal person if u are a free thinker they say you are crazy 80% of humanity thinks normal is to obey and to not think for themselfs
If million of people are smoking pot then why not? It would help the economy because they would tax it (which would suck), and kids wouldn't be killing themselves trying to get high some other way. And they call it a gateway drug but it's more of a safe alternative to getting high. If anything I think Marjiuna should be legal, it's safer than alcohol that's for sure. But that's only my opinion.

Geeeee, someone in a suit and tie telling us that marijuana is a 'joke'. I'm not telling anyone here what to believe, I am however recommend you take a look at what I call 'Suit and Tie' syndrome. You'd be amazed at the cookie cut statements that spew from the mouths of these individuals who for some reason, almost every day of the week, wear the same attire.

"Obama Jokes" - just keep the title there and replace the video with every word he's ever spoken.
Isn't it funny. Alcohol and Nicotine are Taxed drugs, so those ones are all right.
It's all those OTHER drugs that you can't have...you know.. the non-taxed ones growing in nature.
Guess the government says God made a mistake called Marijuana, just before they finish their speech:
God Bless America.

I hope Obama has made it crystal clear to the youth of this country that it doesn't much matter who you vote for in the current system. The enemy is not Republicans or Democrats. It is the system itself that has been slowly corrupted over the last 200+ years.

they should legalize all drugs in my eyes. It would have a massive effects on all these gangs killing people over drugs. If your weak enough to get addicted to a drug like cocaine or heroin in the first place, it would never matter whether its illegal or not, if the person is willing to do such things to their body, they don't really deserve my tax money going to their rehabilitation homes.

@KripDrip my father was smoking pot, doing crack, doing mushrooms and was still earning over 100,000 per year. joe rogan is a super fit guy working daily whilst smoking pot every night. For me marijuana is already legal because if the person is willing to take it, it will never matter whether its legal or not. I've done marijuana 2 or 3 times and it has the shittiest effect on me. I have no interest in ever doing it again, but that's a very subjective view.

@blackstrat6897 first off i was saying obamas a scumbag for the way he answered the question .. stoners arent stripped of their opinions because they smoke weed and its bullshit answers like this that make americans think that the minority of people smoke rather than the majority which is the truth. second its the internet, not a book im trying to publish ill say whichever way i like you got the point
bannanamasher 7 months ago
@bannanamasher I agree a majority does smoke, now either way it will be legalized in our short lives one day, alchohol was and that kills people more so than pot.

If millions of people started smoking marijuana they all might start thinking. Thinking about why they let a small group of people control all of the world's resources. Why we waste our lives chasing after pieces of paper that are for some reason deemed valuable. Why they believe everything they hear on television. Why America houses less than 5% of the world's population but houses 25% of the world's prisoners. Why we separate and divide when we should unite. Can't have that, now can we?

If million of people are smoking pot then why not? It would help the economy because they would tax it (which would suck), and kids wouldn't be killing themselves trying to get high some other way. And they call it a gateway drug but it's more of a safe alternative to getting high. If anything I think Marjiuna should be legal, it's safer than alcohol that's for sure. But that's only my opinion.
