I feel it would be better if marijuana was treated like alcohol and other drugs wouldnt get you a criminal record and prison time.
You would go to treatment and they'd try to help get you off of the drugs in a comfortable setting. We dont imprison people for being addicted to cigarettes, caffeine, or alcohol unless you chose to drive drunk. So why imprison a heroin or coke addict? Also marijuana is less harmful than alcohol so to have it banned while alcohol is legal makes absolutely no sense. Its obvious that it's all about money
