About Legalizing Marijuana

The United States is undergoing a massive change with the baby boomers becoming the future leaders of this country. What used to be looked at as "bad", "negative", "only for the losers" has now started to be accepted as nothing more than a cigarette. Can this be true? Are there enough people in the US who understand the true value marijuana can provide? We have to turn back the clock to the prohibition of alcohol. As alcohol started to get back into main stream, the cigarette business was becoming very strong. Together, they realized that the market for them to make money was far too great. Hence, marijuana became the odd man out. For years, people have hidden the use of marijuana for medical, mental and recreational use. Successful people just don't smoke weed right?
