i feel that there are many implications from using weed. social (affects ppl around you) and personal health (addiction or affecting cognitive abilities). wouldn't touch it unless i have no responsibilities to this world
I don't know much about the topic but I guess it has been associated with other drugs in the past and some people will try to use it for crazy motives and I guess this line of thinking outweighed the benefits (for better or for worse).
it was one of those things that someone tossed into a bill that everyone was for without telling people kinda like how they put kickbacks for friends and family in bills
