"I'm not exactly for the use of drugs, don't get me wrong, but I just believe that criminalizing marijuana, criminalizing the possession of a few ounces of pot, that kinda thing it's just, it's costing us a fortune and it's ruining young people. Young people go into prisons, they go in as youths and come out as hardened criminals. That's not a good thing."

- Pat "700 Club" Robertson; two things about this quote blow me away, the first one is obviously that Pat Robertson could come around to being ok with marijuana use. The second is the slightly more subtle admission that our prison system does the opposite of one of its intended goals, rehabilitation.
