Imperial Masterpiece
I've lived in Denver since 1984. We were the first to legalize recreational use, it really hasn't been an issue. In fact, the burb I live in is building a MASSIVE rec center up the street from my house that is almost fully funded from the tax revenue generated from marijuana sales. There are countless other projects taking place all over the state that have been funded by pot proceeds ($250 million in 2018). Overall, it's been very successful.
The only thing that has been bad is everyone keeps moving here, which is jacking up the cost of living, but that's because Colorado is pretty awesome.... well the western half is anyway! =)
I summited 30 peaks last summer while puffing. I don't know anyone with long hair, that went out of style with Nickelback.
I've personally seen multiple peoples lives be ruined by alcohol. I can't think of one due to weed.
Oh yeah... I'm a moderate conservative.
Puff, Puff, Pass!
I'll be bringin' the traveling circus thru in April for a week!!!
....can't really blame poor booze, but people will destroy themselves with whatever tool is to hand......
