The Legalization of Marijuana
            
             Marijuana is the future. The legalization of marijuana is a garneted solution in
            
             solving the nation's debt and many other problems. I think legalizing marijuana in the
            
             United States would create more jobs, boost the economies efficiency, and lower the
            
             crime rate.
            
             If marijuana was legalized someone would need to grow and pick it. Wright? This
             is exactly why marijuana should be legal in the first place. If the President, and members
            
             of congress passed a law authorizing the legalization of marijuana, many jobs would be
            
             created in the process. With un-employment being at a record high, legalizing marijuana

             smoking after the sales tax rose. Legalizing marijuana would have the same effect.
            
             Those who can afford the outrageous sales tax will better the economy and those that
            
             cant will have buy it in sprits when ever they can afford it. Besides boosting the
            
             economy, legalizing marijuana will lower the crime rate in the United States.
            
             The government has fought to keep marijuana illegal, including taking states that
            
             try to decriminalize the drug to court. While the federal government ignores the obvious,
