(He Was Just A Simple Man)...He Walked Up To The Podium...Looked Out At An Auditorium Filled With Thousands Of People....Cleared His Throat.......And This Is What He Said...............................................
"Ladies And Gentleman In The Audience......And All Of Our Elected Officials.....And Most Of All...All Of Our Wonderful People In Law Enforcement......This ....... Is For You.......................................................................
How Many Years Has It Been Now...That Taxpayer Money Has Been Used..(Actually...I Should Say.... Wasted On The Enforcement Of The Marijuana Laws?)....Millions.... Perhaps Billions Of Dollars............All Wasted On The Undercover Operations...The Police Raids...The Chases..The Shootouts... And You Name It
And Thats Just On What Ive Mentioned So Far
Never Mind The Cost Of More Taxpayers Money... To House Those Put In Prisons Over These Laws
That... By The Way.....On Average..Cost The Taxpayers 100,000 Dollars A Year
Not Including Medical Care...Dental Care...College Degrees..And What Have You
And Whats The Real Reason Behind All Of This Law Enforcement Of The Marijuana Laws?
MONEY!!!.....The Government Doesnt Like Being Cheated Out Of MONEY!!..It Called........ Taxes
My Fellow Americans...It Must Be Understood.... That The People Will...Forever... Continue To Smoke Pot
So With This In Mind...Why Cant You People Understand... That You Are Not Going To Win This War... That Was Declared By Richard Nixon Back In The 70s
Maybe Those Harsher Drugs You Can Continue On With..But Youll Never Stop The People From Smoking Pot
As Far As Pot Goes?...Youve Been Wasting Our Money.... With Your Undercover Stuff..Your Raids..And The Informants ....And The Car Chases
My Proposal Is.... That You Pass Laws... Making Marijuana Legal
You Can Sell It In The Liquor Stores...Just Like Buying A Pack Of Cigarettes...Think Of All The Taxes Youll Reap!
Think Of All The Millions Of Dollars Youll Save Us Tax Payers...When You Wont Have The Need For Undercover People In Dark Sun Glasses......Concealed In Vans... Loaded With Equipment... That We...The Tax Payers Have To Pay For
Think Of All The Prisons.... That Wont Be Packed To The Gills... With People That Sold Pot To Make A Buck
You Can Save Billions Of Dollars.Of Useless Spending...You Can Stop The Dealers From Selling Marijuana...Just Like That!
And... At The Same Time My Fellow Americans?
You Can Put A Huge Dent In The Murder Rate...From Big Shot Dealers Driving By... And Shooting Down Dead....Someone Who Was Selling Pot... On Their Turf
So.... My Fellow Americans
There it Is...In A Nut Shell
Its The Answer To What Our Politicians Cannot Seem To Understand..It Has Been A Problem... That Has Been Going On...For...At The Least...60 Years Or So........And Would Probably Be.... What The Majority Would Want...And...In Theory..It Could.... And Would Lower Taxes
So..In Closing... My Fellow Americans
What Ive Just Presented To You..Is The Solution Youve Been Searching For All These Years
Do You Want to Save Lives?...Does The United States Government Want To Make A Lot Of Money?
Then..What Ive Just Said To You All...Is The Solution
Thank You
