WORLD: Schwarzenegger's Twitter Plan Adds Fuel to Legalizing Marijuana
Arnold Schwarzenegger may not be the best politician, but he often has some progressive ideas. His latest idea to help fight California's budget crisis is to setup a twitter hash, #myidea4ca, that maps to a website, MyIdea4CA. As people twitter using this hash, MyIdea4CA gets updated.
MyIdea4CA also allows a Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down function which further gives politicians a better feel for good vs bad ideas. Of course, the site isn't extremely secure, it is very easy for one person to push an idea, but it is the thought that counts.
So, what is most popular?
Early results suggest that the public's most popular idea is legalizing and taxing the sale of marijuana, a possibility Schwarzenegger himself floated earlier this year as state legislators struggled to close a multibillion-dollar budget deficit.

Why is that not surprising? It is high time (pun intended) that marijuana becomes legalized, and what better time than now? There is great potential benefit, especially for California, and honestly ... WHERE IS THE HARM?!?!?!?
Keep an eye on MyIdea4CA, there may be other surprises soon ... like maybe legalizing prostitution?
