I guess I must be feeling better after recent eye surgery, as I penned this letter which the Journal-Sentinel published, my first in the J-S since 2002.

MARIJUANAIT’S TIME TO MAKE POT LEGAL AND TAXABLE
Who cares if Olympian Michael Phelps was photographed enjoying cannabis? (“Phelps apologizes for photo,” Feb. 2)
In light of everything else going on in the world, the real issue is why is this still an issue? Millions are jobless and facing foreclosures, climate change is wreaking havoc, billions in bailout funds are being diverted and misspent, while a few prudes moralize about how Phelps celebrates victory.
It’s time to stop imprisoning our citizenry for this noble herb, legalize it and use the tax revenues to help our country.
