There’s no way America will ever make the use of tobacco products illegal; they mean too much money in government coffers, so to speak.

Publishing companies and other industries didn’t ban smoking inside their facilities because of local ordinances; they did it for savings in insurance costs and a decrease in the number of smoke-fouled computers and smoke-sickened workers. Business owners with any acumen at all have instituted bans with or without the law telling them that they must do so. It’s the economical and prudent thing to

)Marijuana use is WRONG-whatever one's moral beliefs about pot, marijuana laws have caused far more harm than marijuana use itself: marijuana prohibition drained precious criminal justice resources from our communities, made it difficult to keep pot from our children, and destroyed the lives and families of otherwise law abiding citizens 2.) "Marijuana regulation would send the wrong message to teens"- Regulation wuld REDUCE teen access to marijuana by taking it off the streets, regulating it, and sending adults to prison if they sell pot to young people.

Some are petty and some are not. I would rather see tax money go to education programs or cancer research than housing prison inmates charged with drug possession or distribution.
