The people who are simply trying to make a profit are the ones messing it up
"The people who are simply trying to make a profit are the ones messing it up for those people that need it and those legitimate distributors who are trying to help people," said L.A. City Councilman Dennis Zine.

Polticians should work for free then since all they make is profit.
Politicians produce nothing and only exist to further restrict people liberties.

You don't think that same statement is exactly what Big Pharm is doing? What does it matter as per subject? It's ok for Big Pharm but not for medical pot dealers?? REALLY????

While I do agree with a lot of your arguements,your post headline is misleading and the quote out of context.

They'd make more money taxing it. Which apparently the government can tax everything.
Ultimately they lose money sending all the people to jail. It's a drain on the system.

Then why didn't you post the full quote. Or even mention the product involved here. Since Marijuana is illegal and only legal for medical use in a few states, this is a different set of circumstances. It's not a topic about hotdogs. It's a topic about Marijuana. You should include that in your post, because I doubt most people will do more than look at your half quote.
He also expresses an argument as to why they shouldn't profit it off of it. Not that I entirely agree with it, but you should at least let people know what the man was quoted over, and why. Deny ignorance my friend. Quit spinning this.
