I'll be voting yes, if for no other reason than to encourage more referendums.

I think its insane that we need to vote people in to vote for us, who are statistically more likely to be psychopaths. The majority of Australians think weed should be legal, but it still isn't.

Giving people the power to vote on specific issues bypasses the bureaucratic bullshit.
