vote for both, just alcohol first.
Well the problem is that alcohol really does take its toll on the economy as well. Accidents, killings, any number of vandalism/fights/small crimes while drunk. Not to mention the poor decisions made while on such.
I'd argue alcohol is about 50/50 on profit versus loss.
vote for both, just alcohol first.
Basically already been said already, but I would have to chose weed. My only 2 reasons are:
A. It's a lot "safer" than alcohol. Gets you that "high" while killing less than half the brain cells than alcohol. (Plus there's a lot of other side effects to alcohol that you get to miss out on as well).
and
B. Hemp can be used for a lot of other great things too.
But honestly, I see no reason why they both shouldn't be legalized, it should be the people's choice to do as they please IMO. (As long as they don't harm anyone else is the process of course).

Weed is more beneficial than alcohol. Both are fun though
I know. That's why it's still illegal in most places.
The only reason it was illegal in the first place is because Harry J. Anslinger ran an anti-hemp campaign, because he knew that hemp was much easier to grow and much safer to grow, and that it could be used for many things that would run a lot of the companies he owned out of business.
Like I said in my first post, I think they should both be legal, it should be the person's choice if they want to smoke/drink or not. (And this is coming from someone who doesn't enjoy doing either).

Investigation costs, reparation costs, court fees if the person is found, COL fees if the person is put in jail or a holding cell, all come from the taxpayers (excluding court fees depending on the situation, if a person refuses to pay them, then we the taxpayer are paying that persons court fee AND his COL fee).
@scotbud123 Marijuana wasn't made illegal solely on that campaign. There was an entire campaign in the south that was trying to make it illegal for racial reasons, the Mexicans who were coming over illegally were bringing their crop with them and smoking it in the border towns and near such. People didn't like the Mexicans so they associated their racism with the Ganja they were smoking and ran a campaign against it.
Marijuana obviously. That's not even a question. although, I do love my alcohol. So I'd be lost if that were illegal too. There are some things that weed... just can't do, and being a pot head, I would know these things.
Don't tell me "Oh Danny, you're crazy weed gives you everything blah blah blah". Because that's not true lol. But of course, weed would become legal before that, if that were the case.
In all honesty, the Government is trying to kill us off. Keep something legal, that can cause accidents, all this bs, along with cigs. Everything bad for ya is pretty much legal, while a simple herb is illegal. Pretty mind fucked.

I don't understand the reasons to make something illegal that people can consume. Its like the government not wanting you to drink kool-aid no more.
Both although i do smoke more then i drink just because stuff gets out of hands some times when i forget my limits but by that time im to fucked up to even know i have a limit

Weed, it's never caused a single death, where as alcohol causes multiple hundred deaths a day, alcohol is a leading cause in physical abuse, where as weed is a leading narcotic used by a lot of peace or "hippie" representatives, weed has no physical way to overdose except 1500 pounds in a 15 minute time period, which is pretty near impossible, where as alcohol, can harm not only the consumers life, but anyone in their way.
actually the lethal dose of marijuana is at least one-third your body weight two-thirds because most of it is lost in the side stream still impossible though unless some one locked you in a chamber and commenced to exhaust the weed smoke in there even after you passed out
