text: I am torn between the repealing the Patriot Act and making Marijuana a taxable crop.\n\nRepealing the Patriot Act\nPROS:  It's a messed up law that threatens our civil liberties and puts us on the short road to a police state.\nCONS:  None, it's a stupid law.\n\nMarijuana a taxable crop\nPROS:  Gets alot of NON-VIOLENT offenders out of our prison system.  \nIt grows well in poor soil.\nIf you tax the hell out of it, it can bring in alot of money.\nCONS:  I guess some people would argue against legalizing a SOMEWHAT mind-altering drug similar to already legal alcohol.
