  This is once again proof that we live in a corporatocracy as opposed to a democracy. Big corporations see no value in legalizing pot, if only to possibly (but most likely not) diminish the use of cigarettes and alcohol. To corporations, there's no money in pot, to cities and states, there is plenty of money to be made from pot, but who controls the government, the corporations. If we can't legalize pot, they should tax the hell out of cigarettes and alcohol, (yes even more than they do already) since so much damage is done by both. Like the old saying goes: No one ever started a fight at a Grateful Dead concert!!! And to add on to that, no one has ever died of pot cancer or pot poisoning!
