Our government leaders see dollars flowing to state and local coffers, and now big business is getting on the bandwagon as the process looks very lucrative from their perspective. But who is looking out for our children? Who can keep our roads safe from drugged drivers? I think many voters will simply vote "yes" because they don't see the potential problems, but legalization is a dangerously slippery slope. We are looking at more deaths on the highways and elsewhere if we legalize pot. Wendy Weir, Sacramento - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
