Mitt Romney confronts medical marijuana patient
I don't like Mitt Romney for a lot of reasons, and was disgusted by this clip: http://gloob.tv/news/romney_confront...t?article=1976 of him explaining to a wheelchair-bound lifelong muscular dystrophy sufferer that he would indeed arrest him for his "crime" (I live in California, where taking medicine that a doctor recommends isn't a crime).
Is there a drug solution?

Drug abuse ought to be treated for what it is: a health problem, not a crime.
Much of the crime problem in North America is specifically related to drugs. Most, maybe all, drugs ought to be treated like booz and tobacco -- use taxes and higher insurance rates. Take the profit out of the picture and the criminal distribution networks will vanish. They'll have to rely on prostitution to make a buck: hmmm ... maybe the same solution would there too.
