Cannibus legalized in Alaska, Was., and Oregon

[Refractive Reflections]

The extent and effort certain portions of the population are going to legalize marijuana use (outside of any medicinal use) is disappointing, just imagine if that same energy was actually used in making social or economic improvements. Oh well... I guess for some, it's more important to get high than improve standards of living.

It's ironic that society has demonized tobacco, but is now welcoming marijuana use. ...Are we just trading one drug for another? It's a little scary as to the societal effects in terms of mental health considering there's an uncertain connection (if there's a correlation versus cause-and-effect) between marijuana use and brain changes and symptoms resembling schizophrenia.
