Marijuana is the most used illegal substance in America. Many people don't see the big deal in legalizing marijuana. Especially since alcohol and cigarettes are legal. This is a touchy topic because marijuana is known to have both positive and negative effects on humans. When on forums, the question should marijuana be legalized in the United States is one that is battled back and forth sometimes without definitive positions.
Should Marijuana Be Legalized
Some people say if we legalize marijuana the cartels wouldn't be such a problem. Police say that would just make cartels produce more cocaine and heroin. Still, legalizing marijuana might not be a bad idea because 15 million people already admitted to being users in the United States. Even when people go to jail for drugs 40% of the cases are for marijuana.
There has definitely been talks about the government taxing marijuana. Because at the end of the day we all know Uncle Sam wants his cut of the “bread.” If the government taxes marijuana there would be less people going to jail for it. Then law enforcement would have more time to focus on heavier crimes; which really means law enforcement would be laid off or take on “furlough” days
Should Marijuana Be Legalized in the United States - What You Think?
The legalizing of marijuana is a weird topic to me. If marijuana is illegal then that means the government thinks the substance is bad for the people. If that's the case then why would doctors prescribe marijuana to certain patients? For example, patients with glaucoma. This topic is also strange because under certain circumstances marijuana is LEGAL in various parts of the country, but illegal in others. A product such as cigarettes that have absolutely no health benefits is legal, but marijuana, which is also hazardous to health, but does provide some good is banned!
Should Marijuana Be Legalized Everywhere
Over the years marijuana has not been seen as a hard drug. There are many celebrities who are open about their marijuana use as well. Being that cigarettes and alcohol are legal you might as well add marijuana to the list. I myself rarely see users of marijuana get out of control and belligerent. So again I ask what's the BIG DEAL, should marijuana be legalized in the United States? Lay in on the comments for me and share this on the forums, groups, social media, etc.
