I think it would be neat if someone out there would tally up how much the government spends on these pot busts.
The anti-prohibition people in the NH House Criminal Justice committee have been trying for literally years & years to get the State to some up with a few simple numbers:
* how many people are in prison in NH for simple possession
* how much time an average cop spends on simple-possession cases vs. cases involving property crime
* yadda, yadda, yadda
Stonewalled at every turn.
Fortunately, we are winning hearts and minds in that committee...
