Marijuana Laws
After reading the CQ Researcher article about marijuana, I think that it should be legalized now because about 605 million Americans have been arrested for just having it on them, they had it for their personal use. I never knew how expensive it was to arrest someone with marijuana, but it costs approximately $10, 400 per arrest, and since there are so many people being arrested it’s now like $7.6 billion spent on arresting someone..
Even though marijuana isn’t a safe drug; I don’t think any drugs are, it would beneficial to put a tax on it because there are so many people that have this drug, and I think that by taxing marijuana that will greatly help our economy right now.
The only think I fear from marijuana being legal is that it’ll be everywhere; if it’s passed than anyone that’s able to but an ounce is going to get some and they’re going to be smoking it everywhere. Another would be the effects it gives you; I think it has the same side effects as alcohol. Some people might do something stupid while they’re on it and will probably end up in jail for abusing use of the drug
Legalizing it will have it’s downfalls but I think that overall it will be a benefit to our economy.
