I've never felt that marijuana use is wrong ethically or morally. As far as i'm concerned it's totally natural because it does just happen to grow on the Earth naturally just like tobacco. Similar to the discoveries of new plants with amazing medicinal abilities in far away jungles and rain forests I also believe that any type of narcotic that just happens to be totally natural was meant to be found by man. Obviously for some reason God chose to put marijuana on the Earth but as far as what he originally intended us to use it for.Now that's another question.Even though marijuana has been found useful in the medical field in treating certain illnesses and conditions.It is also known to be hard on your lungs along with other unfavorable negative effects on the human body.If tobacco companies are and have been getting extremely wealthy for years now selling us a product that has been proven to kill us then what difference would there be if widescale sale of marijuana occurred?They're both totally natural products with equally bad effects.In actuality marijuana can be used to help people with certain medical conditions whereas cigarette smoking and tobacco use in general has no known benefits that come from use.So honestly as far as I see marijuana has more to offer than tobacco and should be sold in the U.S. so the government can profit from it and more jobs would also be created in the new "marijuana industry".This would also allow the government to better regulate marijuana distribution and set laws on possessing too much at one time.Cause if you can't beat the drug dealers and narcotics distributers then "join'em".I don't advocate the use of marijuana but I do belief it has the potential to help the economy by providing more jobs.All in all it's a tough topic to pick a side on because American society has looked at marijuana use so unfavorably for such a long time.
