A great quantity of Marijuana is grown right here in the US. It is essentially a regular cash crop in Humboldt County in California. It is so open a subject that the residents have come forward and are worried that the potential legalization of marijuana in CA will impact their finances and way of life. Humboldt County worries about life after legal pot http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35991506/ "EUREKA, Calif. - Marijuana growing has long been a way of life in Humboldt County, especially in recent years as timber and fishing jobs have disappeared along California's North Coast. Now some residents worry that their way of life is being threatened — not by law enforcement, but by efforts to legalize marijuana in the state. " The US war on drugs is a miserable failure year after year, everyone knows it. As with so many other government actions it has digressed into a slush fund for various government agencies and private companies to grab money to "save jobs", sell stuff to the government, save power positions in Washington, etc. One more government failure that uses our tax money for no fruitful purpose.
