It's shocking how scary marijuana still is to so many. I do not smoke, but I know there are huge medicinal benefits, that it has the ability to ease real pain and suffering, but big pharma gets to make billions while addicting millions. Further, hemp is used worldwide for clothes, materials, etc. It could create jobs, bring better economic times to this country.

The NY State legislature can't pass a medical marijuana law but Michigan can. I will purchase some non medical marijuana today here in NYC.

"yes let legalize it in NYC, It will create jobs and will help us through these tough times." As the fabulous furry freak brothers said: Dope will get you through times with no money better than money will get you through times with no dope"

@edEx MY GOD! NO! Don't give them any ideas! (ed. I think maybe Xanax should be first on that list and you missed Vicodin and Valium all together)

The government should do what they do in Amsterdam: Keep it legal as a means of control, and not enforce the law. But then they don't smoke to excess as Americans would if such laws would be relaxed here. Americans aren't very good at consuming in moderation. Just look at all the fatties and credit card debt we have.

I know hundreds of people who smoke pot, and I think people would get it for recreational use and not legitimate reasons." If that's the defense, lets take the following (far more harmful) pharmaceutical drugs off the market so they can't be used recreationally: 01. Ambien 02. Xanax 03. Cough Syrup (with or without alcohol and/or dextromethorphan) 04. Viagra 05. Tobacco 06. Vicodin 07. Adderall 08. Ridilan 09.

Legalize and end the recession. This crop, in all of its forms, could end a lot of woe in this country... and not just by smoking it.

The county breakdown was very interesting, since even the most rural places were overwhelmingly in favor of this proposition. Go Michigan!

I think we should legalize weed for old people over 55. Young people don't need it but when I get old and something starts hurting I want to Schmoke some weed and get shome pushay.
