I watched this video today to try and get an idea on what to blog about, by the end of it i was laughing hysterically at the fact that this subject no longer has any cons, but our government will still not aknowledge the fact that if marijuana was legalized and distrubuted the right way they would be making enough money to get us out of this rut that were into today. marijuana sold legally in california alone rakes in 10million dollars in taxes for the government and could potentially raise up to 1.2 billion a year. Imagine if all 50 states were in on that action.

But that would make us imoral right? making profit off of a horrible and deadly substance like marijuana. Even though we do it with tobbacco and alcohol everyday. Which are also the first two leading causes of death in America. Legalizing Marijuana would not increase or decrease the number of users. why would it? You either want to smoke or you don't. In a study by the Narcotic Educational Foundation Of America called "Subject Narcotic." They stated that Marijuana was "Non Addictive" which means when a user is deprived of the drug they will not experience the agonys of withdrawl. Some people even consider coffee to be more addictive than Marijuana.

I think everyone should watch this video and then form your own oppinion on this subject. it changed my oppinion thats for sure.
