An Economist Gets Stoned!


 
 
How Much Would Weed Cost If They Legalized It??...
 
Marijuana is a significant industry that continues to grow throughout the nation. All over the country states are trying to pass laws that will allow marijuana to be legalized. There have been disputes on whether or not the government should legalize weed and how it legalization could impact our country.
Many people want weed to remain illegal because they believe it will have a negative impact on the country and that more people will begin to take part in it. In the city of Los Angele's, many stores are being shut down that sell medical marijuana. However, if the government legalizes weed the prices will plunge and become cheaper which can significantly benefit the country by making more profits. Unfortunately for the drug dealers and trafficker, the legalization of weed will have a negative impact on their business because they will be making less money.
I believe that the government should legalize weed because it can have a significant impact on our country. Legalizing weed can help create more jobs for U.S citizens, as well as, accumulate more money that can help and benefit us during this economic crisis. For example, Legalizing pot in California alone and taxing it can substantially raise about 1.3 billion dollars which can greatly benefit the government and state. Legalizing marijuana through out the entire country can raise a significant amount of money and help get our country back on track. In addition, it would be idiotic not to legalize pot because most adolescents are smoking weed on a daily basis.
