Because US is a Capitalist state that have been Hijacked and controlled by Corporatism who unfortunately can't legally sell weed as a competing product like what you can do with Alcohol and weed is alcohol's biggest enemy. So keep Weed illegal (Profits by illegal means) and that will keep the alcohol business alive (Profits by legal means) Freedom is only Worth it if you can profit from it, cause money is true power. |
What? Weed is already legal in some US states and sooner or later will be legalized nationwide. On top of that how will legalizing weed take away profits from the alcohol industry? Weed is not a substitute for alcohol, it might be for tobacco but I'm not even sure for that either.
The bottom line for a business is profit anyways, not interest to keep an unwanted good afloat, if weed happens to be a much more profitable venture then most likely a business will switch to that type of product. Here in Canada, the government owned provincial alcohol stores are already getting ready to sell weed as soon as it's legalized, the premier has already proposed for the alcohol stores to sell weed in order to maintain their monopoly.
