If what you're trying to "conserve" is the New Deal.
Nope. Conserving (maintaining) 70 years of marijuana being illegal.
We, as a society, have nothing to gain by legalizing marijuana. Medical marijuana is a scam, and is nothing more than a first step towards legalization.
"In 1979, Keith Stroup, NORML's founder, told an Emory University audience that they would be using the issue of medicinal marijuana as a red herring to give marijuana a good name."
