Over time, I definitely noticed a change in their behavior. They didn't seem as sharp mentally as they were before, and I suspect it was due to the long-term effects of marijuana. Based on what I observed, I think marijuana use should be illegal.

We will probably be fried for this, but I agree mostly with what you said. I think it does negatively affect someones drive or ambition. Having said that, so does valium, xanax, halcion, wine etc.. If someone wants to smoke or eat a gummi, why should I care. Are there any studies showing that marijuana users are more likely to be on public assistance? Other than that we need to fins a way where state laws do not contradict federal laws in regards to this.
