No politician is interested in decriminalisation. Those fellas in Victoria should write a bill that erases all the state's cannabis,hemp,marijuana,watever they want to call it related laws stating that for the rest of time it's fully decriminalised and never to be legalised. It should be enshrined in law that the government waged a war against the people they were meant to represent and as such legalisation would give the government the means to tax the loser and thus takes the spoils while putting the loser to work which is an unacceptable outcome for a loser of a war. The winner gets not only their freedom but the spoils so it's a decriminalised free for all for eternity.
Watch as how they instead draft a bill for legalisation that follows the guidelines the UN's convention on narcotics lays out where there's licensing systems, seed to sale tracking, will insist upon high taxes that are only ever able to increase, how unlicensed cultivators will be in violation of the law, etc. In short it's going to be treated the same as how tobacco is today and you're gonna be told how lucky you are that you can go to the pot shop and pay $30/g for immature garbage that was exported to Vietnam and manhandled like a motherfucker being manicured because they don't give a single fuck and likely sell their gloves after work to supplement their shit income too.
If you're stupid lucky they'll do what they did for the ACT and give you absurd limits that are impossible to be in compliance with and then they'll selectively target people especially if you've been a political nuisance or god forbid outed police corruption like how QPOL just stole a property for QPS's future gas pipeline and will be using future royalties for police pensions. Personally I think they'll just laugh and go yeah nah cunt, take what you can get and most muppet head motherfuckers will be all well any step in teh right direction is a foot in the door for later change! never once considering how much their government truly hates them and how any change that isn't forced upon them only ever results in greater harm coming to the masses to benefit a few.
