Administration blogged “US Gov: Mary Jane and Me”. In Which he states his main
arguments for legalizing marijuana. His first argument was that people with
higher cognitive activity were more likely to use marijuana base off of a study
done in England. The second reason was ADHD medicine are legal but are mostly
meth and cocaine, also have issues with causing loss of appetite and insomnia.
However, he pointed out that there are strains of marijuana that offer the same
benefits as the ADHD medicine without the side effects. His final point was
that making marijuana legal would do two things. One it would boost each state’s
economy just like it has done for Colorado. The second was that with making
marijuana legal it would stop the use of hard drugs, because they would have a
legal way to escape.
Now I agree with most of the blogs
point, I do believe that we need to go ahead and make marijuana legal. It would
boost the economy and help with tax revenue, it is a great self-medication to
help with inflammations and anxiety issues. Overall I also feel marijuana is
less dangerous than alcohol. Now the only issue I had with the blog is the
statement that if marijuana was legal it would stop the use of harder drugs. I
find this to be an impossible statement because there are people who abuse
other drugs like molly, coke and meth that don’t even use marijuana. I feel
harder drugs will always be used because there are people out there who want
bigger and longer highs and whether marijuana is legal or not that will not
change. But like I stated before I do agree with and believe one day every
state will make marijuana legal.
