Marijuana decriminalization in the continental United States.

Created by A.T. on May 28, 2013

As a country, there are beneficial as well as non-beneficial things that would come with marijuana legalization, but with decriminalization would come a solution to a victimless crime and working class people that would not have to worry about coming home from their labor intensive job and wanting to relieve stress and tension. I'm not saying everyone should be allowed to smoke however much they want, but those who do shouldn't have to worry about a felony charge on their record keeping them from a better job in the future. It would keep good people out of jail, which would also decrease the amount that the government spends on locking up said people. Give it a chance, Mr. President. Who is it hurting?
