Decriminalizing marijuana

[Millane]

i guess it all depends on who you know... i live in Bendigo about an hour and a half away from Melbourne and i could get marijuana and speed pretty readily if i wanted it. but thats just coz im friends with a bloke thats in on all that. down in melb you can get anything and all it requires is cash and going down to the commission flats (which is in itself a measure of how determined you are to get drugs) but yeah if i wanted anything in a hurry it would have to be pot or speed but if i was prepared to wait well till i went down to melb i guess...
i see the govt in this instance being pretty stupid... if pot were legalised a) less people would smoke it (as happened in sweden or switzerland or one of them countries up that way) and b) they would be able to tax and get a bit more money in there grubby little hands.
