Medical Marijuana


Marijuana should be decriminalized because it would lead to less crime, innocent people wouldn't be behind bars just for holding a joint or selling a gram, and if it gets legalized it would be for medical use or recreational use, depending on what the states want.









 Currently there are twenty one states that have legalized marijuana:
The total number of people who use marijuana medically is 1, 029, 315

Marijuana helps reduce chronic pain





                                                                                   
Disadvantages to legalizing marijuana:

More serious abuse of the "drug"

Serious lung diseases (hairs on the lung disappear)

Some consider it a gateway drug

Bad influence on children





So, even though there are many benefits to legalizing marijuana for allowing it to be recreationally accepted or medically, there are also some disadvantages. I personally believe that it should be medically allowed everywhere, because there has never been a reported incident of anyone dying of overdosing on pot. However there has been on other pills, and drugs. SO in the long run, the biggest benefit to legalizing marijuana would be that the government could make money off the tax of the sales.

Answers to blog questions

The point of making blogs is to share general information about facts someone might want to know, or you can share personal stories about your life and then you can get comments from people that you know in person on your blogging site or people that you just don't know.
I believe that people whom blog in some ways can be and can not be narcissist. I think they can be because it depends what their opinion is on the topic being discussed, and then that may lead them to be nasty and critical. And, I think that they aren't because if it were a topic they wanted to help out someone on, they wouldn't lower the person's self esteem- it's a win win answer.
I believe certain people who communicate via blog website usually bring people closer together because they are having a great discussion on something and they don't necessarily argue. Then when that person gets seriously ill or doesn't go on the website anymore then the person who is not ill or what not well start to notice and feel very emotional.
All types of blogs are useful depending on what the specific audience.
News and technology blogs are useful because someone might be interested in one or the other and even both and want to post their opinion on the topic, or if the person has a question about either then they can get their answer specifically. You can usually tell if something is trustworthy or not by how well they wrote it etc, or by looking up the person's name who wrote it and by other comments before and after it. They can change how you get your information because, honestly, they can put what giberish,they really think is the answer, but compared to a newspaper article , etc, then the facts have to be true to word so once a again, a win-win answer.
