JUST ADDING TO OUR PROBLEMS

THE LEGALIZATION of marijuana will compound the problems that society 
is currently dealing with regarding driving under the influence. In 
the early 1920s, alcohol was legalized as a recreational drug - look 
where it's at now.

I would like to suggest to the lawmakers of this state to consider 
having all politicians submit to a drug test once a week. They should 
also be subject to polygraph examinations just like ordinary 
residents of this great state.

I wonder how many elected politicians would fail the drug test. Makes 
you wonder - I hope so.
