RE: Steemit Libertarians, are you happy about Vermont legalizing marijuana?
You can't "legalize" marijuana, because that would imply that the government is granting you a right. They have merely repealed an unjust law that prohibited you from trading and consuming marijuana.
They're not GIVING you a right, they're still taking your rights away. You should frame it this way.
ding ding ding!
Wow, an organized crime syndicate was nice enough to stop threatening humans with extortion, kidnapping, and murder (if they resist) for growing/consuming a plant that has existed for millennia before the concept of "government"... So generous of them...
@kennyskitchen lol, nice comment.
Well said @twkaiser!
