People say that they do not want another intoxicating substance to become legal, but what about the horrific ones we already have that doctors prescribe to us everyday? Methadone, Oxycontin, Vicoden, etc etc…. These are SO MUCH WORSE than marijuana and all cause serious addiction! Why is marijuana such a big deal then? I believe its all about money, all the government wants is money and all the pharmaceutical companies want is money and they have legal products that do more harm than good. Its a big conspiracy.

Best answer:

Answer by PEDOBIEBER
