Have never met anyone whose life was made better by smoking pot.

MJ?

The highest drug use by state include:

Washington, D.C.
West Virginia
Missouri
New Hampshire
Michigan
New Mexico
Indiana
Rhode Island
Kentucky
Pennsylvania

And that isn’t a surprise as you’ll notice the huge cities like New York and Los Angeles didn’t make the top 10. That’s only because the measurement was based on per capita of people and those two cities are so big the percentage computes out lower. That just means that D.C. made up the amounts. Three in five is a higher percentage than five in ten.

How else could a normal person (what few there are) get through daily life in the Big Rotten Apple?

Marijuana is not harmless, despite the endless, relentless propaganda to the contrary coming from all directions: the news media, academia, Hollywood, everywhere.

It is at least as harmful and dangerous as alcohol, and alcohol is more deadly and has a higher morbidity than any other substance.

Tetrahydrocannabanol is stored in the liver and other tissues and is time-released for weeks, even months, resulting in a permanent intoxication.

It's like being drunk on alcohol all the time.

It's no wonder that many in the cities mentioned are dysfunctional--or that the cities themselves are dysfunctional.

This is part of the decadence of Western Civilization.

Unless the population in general recognizes and acknowledges this and does something to correct this problem, it's going to get worse, and Western Civilization will continue its downward spiral into destruction.

Unlikely this story is true. NY is in the process of converting to legalization based on a social justice model that hasn’t worked well thus far. In response a ton of bodega dealers / gray market has sprung up. A lot of weed is smoked, but it’s mostly garbage while the state gets its program online. Compared to the west coast operations NY is not at the top of revenue. Just doing a random google search, I don’t see it in the top 15.

That explains why New York City is circling the drain.

Advocates say pot has health and social benefits

What, like the FR libertarian addicted liars? Yeah, that's real credible. Trash.

New York ranks as the world's cannabis capital, blazing through 62.3 tonnes of pot per year

Had to be in NYC tonight. The place stinks of weed, on every block and on every corner.

I am just so proud of we Americans who've descended into drug and sex debauchery faster than a NY minute.

a drugged society can not be a good society...

We are becoming a nation of “Lotus Eaters”. This will not end well.

62.3 tons works out to about 1/4 ounce per person per year. (~7,000,000 population in NYC).

Possibly related...

Editorial: Ms. Hochul’s LLC blunder The governor gets the Legislature to minimize transparency of limited liability corporations as part of the year-end rush to sign or veto legislation.

Can't believe the TU is really having a kitten, BTW.

But the public hearings on pot licensing are gonna be interesting when the public is not allowed to know who is involved with these LLCs...
