First questions.
What will happen to the bond market if we abolish the Federal Reserve? if we abolish the Federal Reserve while another country defaults what will happen to the bond market? If we abolish the Federal Reserve under equilibrium conditions what will happen to the bond market?

Second questions
if we legalize marijuana what will happen to are imports and exports?
if we legalize marijuana what will happen to the dollar's exchange value?
if we legalize marijuana what will happen to capital inflows?

I was thinking about doing this but it seems that the Libertarians on this board really want to end the FED!!!!! Thus I have decided that they would be happy to explain how the bond market would be effected.

Legalizing cannabis and regulating it like alcohol will increase state revenues and take a huge burden off of law enforcement.  Almost a million people every year are imprisoned for simple possession.  Legalization would be a major blow to the profits of criminal gangs.

Quite frankly, I don't care what the effects of legalization would be, on imports and exports, capital inflows, or the exchange value of the dollar.  I believe personal liberty is much more important.

Your questions are heavily loaded.  Stop being a troll.

My questions are not heavily loaded and it is easy to see how turning something into a commercial good may be able to effect supply and demand. For example drug runners ship mary jane into our country every day. Rule of thumb tells us that the value of the dollar is directly effected by imports/exports, and anyone who has taken econ 101 would tell you this. Thus if we legalize it will we import more of it,or export more of it?

It all depends on whether or not other countries (or states, assuming legalization happens at the state level) legalize it as well, I think.

why would it depend on that? furthermore lets just assume that every state, or enough states legalize it to effect trade. Lest just put it this way "if one state legalized it than it would be safe to assume that this state would also trade this good with other countries, and thus it would still effect the flow of imports and exports".

California, Washington, and Kentucky are major producers of cannabis, but we get a lot of it from Canada and Mexico.  I'm not sure, actually.

Cannabis has other uses besides getting you high, also.  Hemp fibers have industrial uses, and the seeds can be used as food.  I remember buying cereal made from hemp seeds at Trader Joe's.

I know Cannabis has tons of uses, but i mainly use it for that fat blunt magic. How do these states trade this stuff abroad? I am sure that they often import or export related technologies or Cannabis products.

Well, interstate commerce is regulated by Congress, and Congress handles trade with foreign countries.  Ideally the federal government would repeal or strip down it's drug laws, and leave such issues to the states.

We can't really export cannabis if no other countries legalize it.  The only way would be to smuggle it in, which really isn't good for international relations.  The same goes for importation - it would have to be smuggled out of other countries, in order for it to reach the United States.

I realize this but there are countries where weed is legal, but even if we were the only country where it was legalized it would still effect technology and capital inflows. This is because growing marijuana requires labor, land, and other factors of production. All of these factors can be imported/exported and so forth.

Minimal effect.  There's no big need to improt marijuana, and certainly less of a need to export it.

Again, it'd have a minimal effect (if even any at all).

Again, I don't see an impact here, unless a foreign company were to invest in a marijuana company here in America to avoid legal problems in the host company's home, but I really don't think it'd have a major impact on capital inflow.
