The movements
to legalize marijuana have (as have many things) divided our country. 49% favor
it and 48% oppose it and those that oppose it point out (correctly) that a
certain amount of people will definitely become addicted. But and it's a big
but, putting aside that marijuana by almost all accounts is far less lethal
than alcohol or tobacco, just how does it stack up habit wise, particularly for
those that begin using as teenagers? Here are the numbers as to just how many
will become addicted; 9% of the people who smoke marijuana, 15% of the people
who drink, and 32% of smokers will never quit. Isn’t it ironic that the
substance which is the least addictive (on many levels) and is the least dangerous
has by far the greatest legal consequences?
