The article goes on to quote David Nathan, a psychiatrist and founder of Doctors for Cannabis Regulation.

"The preponderance of evidence shows cannabis can indeed be harmful to the developing brain. The younger you are and the more you use, the worse the outcomes appear to be.

Just imagine the money that would suck out of New York City and the revenue New Jersey is going get. Of course, NJ will spend 10 or 20 times what they bring in but at least it’s benefiting them at the expense of Cuomo and DiBlasio.

I hate people against legalization as much as I hate gun-grabbers, NO fate is too bad for them.

Legalization is a racist policy that negatively impacts minority entrepreneurs.

The preponderance of evidence shows cannabis can indeed be harmful to the developing brain. The younger you are and the more you use, the worse the outcomes appear to be.

Kids have been reporting since well before any state legalized marijuana sales that they could get it almost as easily as beer or cigarettes, despite the latter two drugs being much more widespread among adults. This indicates that legalizing licensed selling to adults works better than criminalization at keeping drugs away from kids - which makes sense, because only under licensed legalization do those who sell to adults have an incentive to not also sell to kids (namely, the risk of losing their legal adult sales).

You left off these statements from the doctor. I wonder why?

"I'm happy we're ending our reliance on the criminal justice system to prevent use by minors. That's because it simply doesn't work [...] The best way to prevent underage use is telling kids what the real dangers are."
