I would pay $15.00 for a happy meal if a whole chicken cost $4.00 any day!Considering it all comes down to taxes,

A recent report from the RCMP says Canada's marijuana trade (nearly half of which is based in B.C.) is worth about $7.5 billion annually and is connected to weapons and explosives trafficking, cocaine smuggling and stock market fraud.-http://mostlywater.org
Pro's of legalization:
-$7.5 Billion taxed instead of smuggled out of the country.
-Countless lives saved from the elimination of drug violence and all the BS that goes along with it.
-Think of the burden off the court and police/ EMS systems, instead of having to deal with grow house's burning down they can be ready for us to have heart attacks from the McDonald's we eat .

If you get a chance watch the Union, very informative documentary.

This is ridiculous. A hamburger happy meal with a hamburger, apple clices and caramel dip with a chocolate milk is less than 400 kCal. It's all about moderation and making choices. McDonald's sandwiches really aren't that bad. It's the deep fried stuff like the fries and giant cola that makes McDonalds so bad.

Ever check out Boston Pizza's menu? Or have a Caesar salad from any restaurant?
