If the author contends marijuana is so dangerous, then those smokers will be dying quicker and not using those health care dollars late in life & in nursing homes.

He should be thrilled.

(Like him, I often wonder why I need to pay the same dollars for cigarette smokers, alcohol drinkers & the obese/overweight)

The problem with marijuana legalization and usage is not premature death but the medical deadening of the brain. The greater expense comes from welfare and housing for the potheads by age 45, until they finally die from emphysema at 65.
