Do you think marijuana should be completely legal for everyone to use

I live in Florida, yesterday I went to the polls to vote for ligation of marijuana. Yes I think first and for most sick people should have it it's more important. But I got to thinking what if it was legal for everyone. Think about it this way if the government puts a 20% tax or something to that extent on the purchase of weed then the economy would actually be able to climb from the whole its in right now. People will buy it regardless. This way they can control the refineries. What do you think?

We should be able to legally buy medications such as hemp oil made from marijuana but it might put some doctors out of business if that happens.

That's exactly why I think it hasn't been ligalized yet. First I have to bring up the fact that there are drugs that are okeyed my the pharmaceutical companies that make people trip more than weed can ever do, but have thousands of side effects and don't actually help people. These companies care more about there wallets that what can possibly help people

@tatysuma: I agree with you on that. I think young people shouldn't be using it as a recreational drug...if they only knew the potential it has as a medication when it's truly needed...they are finding out young people who start using it have a higher risk for chronic high blood pressure later in life and infants exposed to it can have some learning problems. The medical establishment is greedy as hell, they don't want an easy-cheap do-it-yourself cure for cancer and other diseases that they are making a fortune off of...and was told that by my sister who worked on a cancer ward for over a decade.
