…“Marijuana has proven to show positive
effects, we have to consider the risks factors
  through regulation, health, and addiction.
          Although, Marijuana has negatively
     influenced younger generations, it is all
around us, and therefore should be legalized
      in order to take the next step forward.”
Marijuana is a green, brown, or gray
mixture of dried, shredded leaves, stems,
 seeds, and flowers of the hemp plant.
If
  not erased entirely, taxation
would help the nation’s debt

Jobs   would be readily available

More  money saved as a nation
by closing prohibition
enforcement agencies

We  spend $10 billion a year to
enforce prohibition!

Lastly,this would allow law
enforcement to pursue real and
BIGGER crimes such as murder
Crimes for possessing, growing, and
selling marijuana are far greater
than a person who has committed
murder
•   Marijuana is already prevalent within our
    nation
•   A 2005 study conducted by the National
    Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH)
    estimated that 97.5 million Americans older
    than 12 have tried marijuana at least once in
    their lifetime, meaning about 41 percent of
    the population has tried marijuana (One in
    ten people!)
•   Marijuana contains more than 400 chemicals
