Hi GX ..... I don't have all the answers...... but I have seen people go off the rails.....would it have happened without the cannabis...quite possibly? Regarding your comment about welfare reform ..... I'm thinking more internationally. Whether someone can collect the dole or not there is a social cost.

Regarding the specifics of the sterotype and how many puffs one needs etc., I will leave up to you as I suspect you have a greater in depth knowledge than I

regarding health effects .....less than two minutes of searching at my favourite magazine: New Scientist.

toxic and mental illness

I'm not suggesting these are good enough reasons to be for or against legalization. Just trying to be a little more evidence based
