Besides the financial benefit of legalizing pot, I don't see any reason to bother. The argument of "other things are bad too so why not legalize it?" doesn't hold much water imo.
Sure people are gonna smoke it anyway. Sure it's big downfall tends to be making lazy ass kids lazier and causing them to eat bad food more often. Sure cigs are worse for you (a popular opinion to be sure, and one I'm not here to argue).
But what is the point of legalizing? Did they just find out it increases brain cells? Does it prevent Cancer now? Do people study harder or work harder just because they lit up?
It may not be "that bad" for you, but it's still not "good" for you. Why bother to legalize something that still brings about nothing but negative? And please, don't argue with me based on the fact that you want to smoke it! I don't care what you want, I want your logic not your psychological addiction to pot responding.
