What I've always found odd about pot smokers: They will generally have a diatribe about "evil corporations are poisoning us with HFCS/Vaccines/GM food/etc..."

What I've always found odd about pot smokers:
They will generally have a diatribe about "evil corporations are poisoning us with HFCS/Vaccines/GM food/etc..." Meanwhile they are saying that the federal government shouldn't regulate what someone puts in their body.
Personally I'd like to err on the side of freedom, but all the same there are real risks out there. We can't expect society/government to take care of all dangers, then turn around and say "I should be able to take whatever I want!"
Or to put it more bluntly imagine medicare costs if we legalize all drugs. Imagine the emergency rooms?
- aneth 16y agoI think that people who think this way tend to smoke pot, not the other way around. There are plenty of fully functional pot smokers without conspiracy theories. This is like sitting in a bar listening to the same sob stories repeated week after week at a local dive bar and saying all drinkers are defeatist losers.

Smoking pot makes many people paranoid. This is fact. It's not that far of a stretch to imagine that these people are conspiracy theorists. "This is like sitting in a bar listening to the same sob stories repeated week after week at a local dive bar and saying all drinkers are defeatist losers." When you hear the above from many different groups of people in different parts of the US/world that smoke pot, it really makes you wonder.
