THE LEGALIZATION OF MARIJUANA HAS HAD SOME UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES IN COLORADO. HUNDREDS OF NEW CONVENIENCE STORES UNDER THE NAME OF "MUNCHIE SNACKS" ARE OPENING ACROSS THE STATE TO DEAL WITH THE WHAT IS BEING ANTICIPATED AS A GREAT INCREASE IN THE DEMAND FOR MUNCHIES. DEMOCRATS AND LIBERTARIANS IN THAT WESTERN STATE ARE HERALDING THIS "MARIJUANA EFFECT" AND CLAIMING THAT THIS NEW STORE CHAIN (MUNCHIE SNACKS) WILL CREATE THOUSANDS OF NEW JOBS. ON THE OTHER HAND, DOCTORS ARE WARNING ABOUT THE EMINENT DANGERS POSED BY INCREASED OBESITY. AS A CONSERVATIVE LIBERTARIAN I MUST SAY THE GOVERNMENT HAS NO RIGHT TO TELL YOU WHAT TO PUT IN YOUR BODY AND THEY CERTAINLY DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO MANDATE IT IN ANY WAY. THE GOVERNMENT CAN RECOMMEND (WITHOUT SPENDING TAXPAYER DOLLARS TO DO SO), BUT THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO EVER, EVER MANDATE AS THEY HAVE DONE IN THE CASE OF OBAMACARE. PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO SMOKE OR NOT SMOKE WACKY TOBACCO. PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO EAT BIG MACS OR NOT. AND JUST AS IMPORTANT PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO CHOOSE THE INSURANCE POLICY THAT FITS THEIR NEEDS OR THE RIGHT NOT TO BUY COVERAGE AT ALL. CARTOON BY JERRY HOLBERT
They need the revenue and pot is the answer. Well the munchie stores will work too.
