5 Reasons Legalized Marijuana Might Be Bad for Pot Smokers
These two are absolutely spot on. Corporations would largely take it over and localities would create smoking restrictions that would make the current laws look absolutely permissive.
#1. The Profits Will Only Work Their Way Up
Legalization at the federal level means there's no longer anything stopping corporate America from entering that market and running all of the little people right out of business.
#3. Weed Will Be the New Cigarettes
Whether it gives you lung cancer or not, smoking marijuana is still smoking. How many places can you smoke cigarettes right now? If you live in an apartment, you probably can't even smoke at home anymore. There are plenty of cities and towns in this country where smoking in open air places like beaches or parks is forbidden.
Simply put, people hate the smell of cigarette smoke. If you think they'll take more of a liking to weed smoke, you're dreaming. It didn't even take one year for Seattle lawmakers to start pushing for bans on public pot smoking. Residents have taken to complaining about weed smoke the same way they do cigarette smoke. Check out this quote from a concerned Seattle bus driver who complained about passengers blowing pot smoke directly in his face:
"Once that takes place, I feel inebriated, I feel lightheaded, I'm no longer safe as a bus driver to operate that bus, and I then have to notify the county to send another driver out."

What are people thinking?
