Seriously folks, think about it…i’ve never seen a bigger hypocrite than the government. ask yourself, how many people have “experiemented” with the drug? if you know someone that has in fact experimented with marijuana, do you judge them? how about when they’ve tried cocaine or LSD? a little different, right? the main stats: medical marijuana is now the largest cash crop in America, outgenerating both corn and wheat combined! think weed generated tax dollars would stimulate our economy? it most definitely would. that’s just one of the economic benefits. now let’s think about who the legalization would really benefit. i personally had the experience of losing my grandmother to cancer. her doctor told her she had 1 year to live, she lived for 2. she died at 67. she was the most important person in my life. how did this affect me? she had chemo therapy three times within the final 2 years of her life. if you’ve ever known anyone to have the treatment, you know how bad it can get. my grandmother had lost her appetite and was losing too much weight, a common effect of chemo. her doctor recommended she use marijuana to deal with the pain and to possibly restore her appetite. born in 1923, my grandmother, a devout catholic, was as straight shooting as they came. she said she would never consider using an illegal drug for her illness. as a result, she suffered so much more than she ever should have. this is just an example of the many benefits to medical marijuana use. secondly, i believe marijuana should be legalized simply because alcohol is legal. the past 40 years have been an exact replica of how our government dealt with alcohol during prohibition. the government needs to come to terms with the fact that alcohol accounts for deaths by accidents and health related reasons vs. marijuana, who’s death rate is ZERO! C’mon America, Wake up and smell the pot!!!
