End the senseless prohibition of marijuana and let those arrested for possession of any amount of marijuana out of the for profit prison system of slave labor for corporate America.
Why is this important?
The prohibition of alcohol was a complete failure, and the current prohibition against marijuana is, and always will be a complete failure in which our government is spending over a billion dollars a year of our tax money trying to enforce an insane law that has ruined tens of thousands of lives by sending non violent "criminals" to for profit prisons. Over 50% of all Americans have stated that they want this insane and impossible to enforce law overturned, and 70% of all Americans agree that medical marijuana should be made available to those in need of this cheap and easily gotten natural herb that has been proven to help many unfortunate people suffering from serious diseases. The billions of dollars that are wasted trying to enforce this insanity could be much better spent on things like education, health care, roads, bridges, green energy and much more.
