Pass the weed....


I agree to the legalization of weed because I see no harm in it.  To me and many others people that may smoker or may not smoke weed, it does not harm or kill people like alcohol does.  You can get high and you won’t get crazy and beat your wife but if you get drunk you can’t control yourself and act out all nasty drunk.  Where is the danger from weed like alcohol?  There is no danger, you can’t compare and it also is used in the medical field for some patients to feel better when the prescription drug have very many more side-effect then a little joint.  The Government should make it league for recreation and tax the green, Colorado taxes there league recreational weed and make a Killen.  In February Colorado made from the Total All Marijuana Taxes, Licenses, and Fees paid out to be $3,519,756.  There is too much press and too many important people that also agree about the legalization of weed.  If I was a smoker and all I had to do was pay a tax just to smoke it league well that is fair to me and maybe whoever adopts the league of weed will be paid out by taxes and it should help the economy not hurt it like other thing do .

“Hello people of blogger status. So for today's post, I almost strained my brain on what today's topic I should rant about. Surely enough I've come to the conclusion that the topic of marijuana is nothing far from a fun discussion. Not because it's probably one of the easiest topics to write and editorial on, or that I may be a recreational pot smoker, but because the issue of marijuana is one that will never end. I personally believe it to be amazing that marijuana, as a sticky political issue, is never going away because of its ongoing usage. No matter what few states legalize it, this issue is probably never going to be solved unless all state legalize it. Marijuana is also going to be something that stays on this earth forever. Whether US citizens smoke it or plant it, marijuana is always going to be uncontrollably accessible and in most cases; affordable to the younger working generation. The topic itself, also allows too much time and money to be spent on deciding what should be done, when the answer is plain as day. LEGALIZE IT. Why fight a battle that can't be controlled. The government's ignorance of this issue, fails to comply with the political benefits of it. Despite all of weed's medicinal benefits, needless to say one of the primary arguments for legalizing weed has been to regulate and tax the hell out of it in a time when most states are struggling to stay in the black.  However, studies determined that the high-water mark for tax revenue would be in the initial years, because as the “wow” factor of legal weed wears off.  Users are then anticipated to decline. I argue that this is another act of ignorance on the government. Marijuana has been a recreational drug for years, and will be for years to come. Not because of users today, but because of future users. I know it sounds horrible, but little Billy may say no to drugs now, but 9 times out of 10 he will eventually become accustomed to the "high life" or be involved with other users. It's sad, but we do live in a world now where it seems like "everyone’s doing it" and everyone will at least try it once. Despite the unintentional negativity, the true benefit of weed's legalization inquires that there may be a progressives hope to lure young people to the polls. One of the biggest issues I've learned while studying for government exams is the fact that the younger generation lacks the most political participation. Marijuana may be the answer to increase this younger generation's participation in government. So to the question as to what should the government do, or if they should do anything; simple. Legalize it.”
