Being a neighbor to Colorado when marijuana was legalized, one aspect sold to voters was that it would increase funding for education. Sadly, emergency room visits increased, including children who got into parents "gummies" that looked like candy. Vehicular accidents increased as well. Our family who lived there had to stop going to sports bars since they cannot have substances in their systems for work. (You don't want your pilot high on second hand mj). Users abused the priviledge and smoked in public places, not just their homes...afterall....who were they hurting was their mantra. I watch the TV ads and think of the added problems that they never mention since it's all about passing this law. Sad to present only one side of an issue. Bad for people.
