It's 2019, marijuana should be the least of our nations worries. Marijuana has been linked to helping people who suffer from anxiety, depression, loss of apetite, chronic pain, ect. If marijuana was that big of a national issue how did it become a source of medicine for doctors? There are many common misconceptions about marijuana being a "gateway drug". If you are born with an addictive personality you are more likely than the average person to abuse certain substances. Putting the spotlight solely on marijuana claiming it will lead to a failure of our society, is unfair and contains no background evidence. Saying marijuana would harm our economy is far from the truth. It is predicted that marijuana legalization could produce up to 28 billion in yearly tax revenue. It's important to educate yourself on what marijuana is and what it can do for you.
