I kinda feel like legalization would totally burn out contemporary weed culture in a few years or so.

Really, I'm just making fun of the fact that you're under the impression that age restrictions, as ineffective as they are, are some great solution. Enough to adulate them in your first post in this thread.Where exactly did you get the impression I did?Once again, looking too much into other people's posts as usual.

And that's why we have minimum age requirements.
The OP is about teenagers simply being teenagers, and his conflation with that of responsible adults. I'm simply illustrating why we have sensible laws in place to make it difficult for these 'dumbfuck' teenagers to engage in egregious behaviour.

What I observed in high school was people continued down the same path they were on before smoking. There were the people who were responsible and consistent who kept that up after they started smoking and still got good grades and went to college. Then there was the class clowns who just let weed control them, blowing off friends and lying just to smoke. They were gonna be losers before weed.

Only nicotine, and that's to ween a smoker off of it.

Over time you can drop from 15mg to 10mg, 10mg to 5mg, and so on until you're free of it. It's not the same as weening off of cigarettes where you get the same amount of nicotine in every hit (unless you constantly switch brands).

The former is an initial cost, the latter is a constant cost.
