Default just my thoughts

Also if you think about it, marijuana could provide use for many other small situations. If you think about it, marijuana can teach kids/teens how to be responsible ( if you get them involved in growing, teach them HOW to water it, plant, trim, basicly become a professional plant grower) many different things are required to grow these plants. suchs as growing with a CERTAIN amount of sunlight and darkness.

Now on responsibility with smoking. Moderation, use, parental help, and basic knowledge of the plant would make people more educated, and smart on using it. I would honestly see a WAY bigger market on marijuana then tobacco. I have a conspiracy on the tobacco company who does'nt want to legalize marijuana because if you were to legalize marijuana, i could honestly see tobacco losing a HUGE chunk of profit. I WOULD HONESTLY have my kids smoke weed instead of getting drunk or smoking cigs/cigars.

Although i would rather have my kids smoke marijuana, there should be an age limit. 21 for alcohol, 18 for tobacco, i say either 17-18 for marijuana. I would understand not being able to smoke untill 18 because i could see marijuana slowing the advancement of brain growth in younger people.

I used to smoke meth when i was younger. I started with ALCOHOL, then marijuana, then meth. I was addicted to meth for about 5 months (yes 5 months) The high was amazing, but marijuana HELPED me quit. Instead of being up all night, smoking or snorting meth, becoming insanely paranoid about EVERYTHING, i would smoke a joint the size of a cig (maybe bigger if i had time) and then go play some games, watch tv, EVEN READ A BOOK (yes i do something productive on marijuana, i even concentrate better). I work every day, pay my bills, buying a new car soon, im also gonna go buy enough marijuana to smoke over 2-3 days because the weekend is my time to unwind. Marijuana helps me relieve stress better then ANYTHING else i have done. Alcohol might relieve stress but it also brings on IMMORAL ACTIONS when on alcohol, sometimes it does, some times it does not.

I can do anything better under the influence of marijuana (aslong as i dont have to much, for me i smoke alot so it takes awhile for me to get EXTREMELY stoned) like my video games i play, many of them are first person shooters, my RATING goes through the roof. Yea weed might slow my brain processing by what, .03 milliseconds?!, but honestly it gives me about .03 milliseconds of brain thought. i can think about what i want to do in my head before i take action, and most of the time instead of OVER thinking about something, i just about ALWAYS either get it right the first time, or am so close i can call it a first time. I do better on tests, my common sense goes through the roof also. If i drive under the influence of marijuana i dont drive sparaticly, and change lanes or drive to fast. I love to cruise, listen to some music and enjoy watching cars go by.

Instead of selling crack, and causing crime, bloodshed over drugs and other related situations, i sit in a park or drive around, and watch nature. I would of never stopped to look at a beautiful sunset, tree, animals, formations of clouds, etc.

And if you think about it, instead of the police arresting me, putting me in jail, and having the tax payers pay for me in jail/prison, The government can make MONEY off this, MUCH more then they are getting off tickets and inhumane convictions. If the government was to TAX marijuana, it would be ANOTHER source of revenue, instead of RAISING taxes on various things, they just added a NEW market and a NEW source of income. Marijuana is EASY to produce mass quantities, Easy to sell and VERY easy to make money off it.

If the government used the black market prices, our country would be ALOT closer to debt free then it has been in forever. 20 dollars for 1 gram of marijuana, when 1 fully grown plant produces at least 400 grams, and about 3-4 months to produce 1 fully mature plant, thats what, 8000 dollars for one plant! Think about that in MASS quantities. ( multiply that by 1 million, for users/buyers, thats 8 BILLION DOLLARS that the GOVERNMENT can spend on trying to crack down on METH/crack/heroin)

Just my thoughts, PLEASE reply for feedback.
