For a while I was a believer in the legalization and sale of narcotics by the government.
Then I grew up and realized that the inept bureacracy that is the government (be it federal, state or county) would never be able to under-sell or out-market the druggies.
Craigslist becomes a place for pot peddlers
The classified-advertising Web site craigslist has become popular in recent years with young, tech-savvy city dwellers seeking apartments, jobs and for-sale items.
But it’s also being used as an Information Age black market for some Seattle-area marijuana dealers.
“I’m not too concerned about getting caught,” said Eric, a Bellevue man in his early 30s who peddles pot online through craigslist.
Local and federal law enforcement officials said they’re aware dealers like Eric are turning to craigslist and other Web sites to sell pot, but the amounts sold are generally so small they’re not very concerned.
I wonder if they’ll ship it to you UPS or if you have to pick it up?
