"10’s of millions have smoked pot and not ended up there. Perhaps 100’s of millions."

The pot that kids (and everyone else) are smoking today is not their parent's pot. The level of THC – the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis - is typically three times stronger today than in the old Cheech and Chong days. That is not simply mind-altering, it's brain damaging.

“10’s of millions have smoked pot and not ended up there. Perhaps 100’s of millions.”

And that’s just in the last 10 years. And since the onset of the super weeds where THC is in the 20-25% range.

Over HALF of all adults in the US have smoked it.

10-12% of all adults in the US are current, regular users.

According to CDC.

You should inform yourself before regurgitating propaganda.
Changes in Cannabis Potency over the Last Two Decades (1995-2014) - Analysis of Current Data in the United States

It is concluded that there is a shift in the production of illicit cannabis plant material from regular marijuana to sinsemilla. This increase in potency poses higher risk of cannabis use, particularly among adolescents.

Why buy/smoke dirt weed when good weed is around?

People generally smoke or drink until they reach the level of intoxication desired. Just because you normally drink two pints of beer, doesn’t mean you will drink two pints of whiskey. Likewise, with stronger weed people tend to smoke less. Probably better for you since it means inhaling less smoke.
