Is that fact? Why are we at all discussing it then?

I accept that the pros of legalization may outweigh the cons of the current situation, but the best solution overall could be decriminalization.

.. And on a side note, perhaps fixing the american prison system so that it's not one huge boot camp for criminals. From here commenting a bit crudely, it looks like every time you put someone in jail, that person comes out a worse menace to society than when he or she went in. Of course any law that puts a lot of people in prison under those circumstances will tax society tremendously.

Yes, like so many, I experimented in my youth, but never did it much because I'm another one of those who do get paranoid on cannabis (which was a surprise to me). My friends today are generally not cannabis users.
