BOOST ECONOMY

Legalization of marijuana would boost our economy.

It is a substance that doesn't make people violent, doesn't make 
people overdose and doesn't cause physical dependency.

Being illegal made it easier for people to acquire than alcohol when 
I was in high school. It's better that we regulate it and sell it to 
those 19 and older to boost our economy.
