He has a prescription ... however, a dependency is a dependency and he doesn't want to be dependent on it anymore.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, in a new video for &lt;a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://www.telldc.com/\"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;TellDC.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, Eric is making the argument that if booze is legal, weed should be too ... saying, \"Alcohol has destroyed whole civilizations whereas pot has only made a few hippies happy.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He adds, \"Pot remains illegal because no one has figured out how to make it profitable for the government yet ... it's political, not protective.\"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So we gotta ask ... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\n&lt;div style=\"float: left;\"&gt;&lt;!-- relatedpoll --&gt;&lt;/div&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
