They say that marijuana is not as harmful as alcohol or tobacco products so why shouldn’t it be legal? One of the biggest things on people’s minds is the money that can be made from the growing and selling of marijuana and how much the government wastes each year trying to fight a losing battle on the war against marijuana.
Marijuana Legalization Needs Honest Debate Most of the public understand that many people use or have used marijuana without serious consequences for personal or public health. The public also understands that many marijuana users favor legalization because they like pot and don't want to be arrested for it. It's pretty obvious, and the public is skeptical of advocates who try to pretend otherwise. People use marijuana for different reasons, and answers to the question will vary considerably.
