well the major problems i see with the government legalizing it are these: They fear that productivity would go down, costing the nation billions. Another problem with legalizing marijuana is the fact that it would be easy for people to grow their own at home, thus eliminating the tax benefits that they would otherwise see. The biggest problem i see is this: Marijuana is a hallucinagine (im sure i spelled that wrong), it deprograms your brain. The government feared the changes it cause in the public zeitgeist in the 1960's and 70's, it almost caused a revolt against the government. Which is the biggest fear a government has, its mission is self preservation, and when a nation of people start to see through the bullshit, they get worried. I personally partake in cannibus, although im probably quitting soon, and Im still on the fence as to whether it should be legalized. On one hand, I believe strongly in personal freedom and personal responsability, on the other, I recognize that marijuana use is linked to psychosis and depression (technically marijuana is a depresant). But I'm certain of one thing, its a hell of a lot healthier and safer than cigarettes and Alcohol
