The problem with marijuana is that it stays in your system for weeks, and the effects of this are not fully known. In addition, sustained heavy use accumulates in a person’s system with the effect of a permanent high. Judgement may be adversely affected.

Yes, quite right. I learned those facts in a movie called Reefer Madness. We sure are lucky that only safe drugs like alcohol are legal.

"sustained heavy use accumulates in a person’s system with the effect of a permanent high"

If this were the case wouldnt there be a very low demand for cannabis as an intoxicant? As we would all be permanently high and wouldnt need to smoke any more.

Seems to me whether it’s pols in DC making laws with no knowledge of the subject at hand or drug debates fueled with emotion and baseless propaganda, the result is always the same... And that’s all I want to say, except for the presumption found in the article saying that high dope prices brought about the burgeoning black market—that market has existed since at least the 1920’s, and always will.

Reefer Madness is a big joke but I don’t want to say that pot is harmless either.
