I'm really happy to see that legalization passed in Oregon, Alaska, and DC; but marijuana is a vice industry, and the success or failure of the policy is tied to the details within the regulation.

DC played it safe, which will help prevent the corporate exploitation of consumers and the costly civil litigation associated with corporate exploitation. However, the black market in DC will boom. The retail store provisions in OR and AK, could work well, but I'm not sure I understand all of the rules.

I hope most of all, no one repeats the CO edible marijuana problem. Mixing commercialized processed sugary confections with marijuana capitalism is not the best idea.

Americans voted for higher minimum wage, marijuana legalization, expanded access to abortion, gay marriage and the Republican Party.

What does that tell you about people who vote Republican? The straw man is falling to pieces.
