U.S. marijuana approval soaring; 71% of young people want legalization says Gallup poll


The health benefits and value of hemp are common knowledge now.


Marijuana is becoming increasingly, publicly accepted on the back of research showing THC and CBD, two chemicals found in the planet, are cancer eradicating and have another huge list of health benefits.  “Once people realize that marijuana is actually safer than alcohol, they tend to agree that adults should not be punished just for consuming it.”

Some gets you high, some doesn't, but it all seems to be good for you in moderated doses.  It has some side effects; fatigue being one, but the healing properties are immense.

Mason Tvert, director of communications at the Marijuana Policy Project, responsible for Colorado's 2012 Amendment 64 that made marijuana legal, added that "the effects of 80-plus years of anti-marijuana propaganda are slowly wearing off."


Indeed, only 35% of the people polled that were over 65 wanted to legalize marijuana, but that number keeps dwindling as younger people that support legalization take their place.

Of the rest of the people polled, 71 % of the 18-34 years olds, 64% of those 35-49 and 58% of those 50-64.  Big numbers compared to last decade.  As the trend continues, humans take a step towards freeing people, ignorantly imprisoned for a poor prohibition.  There were roughly 700,000 people arrested last year for marijuana related crimes.  It is costly and hinders the economy and morale of the population.  Changing this law will free people up to be creative to solve the issues we are facing.
