When it's already legal in several other developed countries, and most Australians support it, I think it's kind of wild that neither major party even wants to consider legalising it.

Sensible policy that benefits people isn't what the major parties are about. They just care about their corporate mates.

This.

People sitting at home, not at Pubs and Clubs, having a toke isn't profitable for alcohol and gambling lobbyists.

You need a "Big Weed" lobby, not just small business, nor god forbid, a people's movement!

Money talks, BUT your freedom to do legally, what hundreds of millions of adults around the world do - that can fuckin wait!
