And it does slightly or atleast since it was legalized in some states, the US strains that are used/sent here price goes down as its not as hard to shift around and isn't as big risks growing with it across there then importing/exporting it to Uk is not as difficult.... so it does have a slight reflection...... also, i'm not a boy thank you very much

Recreational use is not legal only medicinal. Also weed is not imported from the USA, mostly homegrown and cartel imported.

Info about the Netherlands;
At this given time, only Amsterdam's cafes can supply tourists however citizens can still toke in any cities cafes e.g Rotterdam
'Magic mushrooms' or 'Shrooms' are illegal although you can still get truffles made from basically the same thing.
The Netherlands tried an idea where little 'heroin clinics', we'll call them, supplied junkies and if they wanted to stop their addiction they gradually reduced their dosage which helped alot of people, not only did they stop some addicts dependancy on heroin they managed to drop crime by an astonishing figure as ofc alot of crime is committed by junkies looking for money for a fix, free fixes = no need to commit crimes for money.
Also of course, they re-legalized Amsterdam's 'drug tourism' industry because they make so so so much money from it.
Now, if we take some points from that and think... yes, yes and yes cannabis should be legalized, pronto.
Alcohol and ciggarettes are much much worse and although I am a bit of a stoner I don't drink or smoke ciggarettes, however... honestly I do think frequent cannabis users seem to be more open-minded and often more morally just although that might simply be it's those type of people who experiment with drugs:p But that is relevant as when you get people like that who think about equality and what not they often support left-wing ideals, and as are goverments like to be corrupt and support hierarchy as they're on the top a population full of hippie protesters if you'll excuse the cliche wouldn't be helpful.
Of course, that is only my opinion.

I think the legalization of marijuana can be very helpful on rebuilding Americas economic structure. When people think of weed they think of teens abusing it and selling it to younger kids; however, weed has many benefits that come naturally and cannot be matched with a prescription. By legalizing weed and charging high taxes on it the government would have a very good chance at restructuring Americas integral economic structure which is in still in a deep incline due to ridiculous government spending. By legalizing weed i think that the government is skipping out on a good chance of bringing back america to its solid ground.

If you own a weed pass. Oh wait, that just went out the window as well.
Legal for 18+ and only 5 gram per person per day. But nobody was actually monitoring that.
And weed isnt legal actually, it's 'tolerated'

You can't get any disease from weed....
You are already predetermined to get it. Meaning you will already get it, but weed speeds up the process of doing so.

Weed SHOULD be legalized. Plain and Simple. It has over a thousand benefits with use of hemp, let alone smoking it. It relax's people and is a form of indifference. It has no damage on your brain (aside from a lil short term memory loss :p). It is not physically addictive, and has 0 deaths directly related to smoking it. Not a gateway drug, and best of all it's all natural!
yes, yes, yes!
If you are opposed to this then you're ignorant or really arrogant!

One of the biggest obstacles to marijuana legalization currently is the federal government. The DEA constantly overrides the states on this matter, even in cases where it's been put to use as medicine, and that's something of an odd problem. It strikes me that the effect of the War on Drugs has done great damage to looking at it as something that could be used medicinally (and it's obvious that it can) because of a fear that it would weaken the capability of drug enforcement to do their job in general.
Marijuana is scheduled at the same level as extremely potent narcotics such as heroin.
Its use is so steeped in our culture that despite its illegality people still use it for recreation and, as mentioned above, some states have okayed it for medicinal use for anti-nausea and pain relief. No doubt, without the schedule 1 setting, it would have long ago been better studied in labs for more medicinal uses.
The funniest stories I hear about marijuana are from crime labs. The lab in Phoenix, AZ at one point had bales of plant materials spilling out of the evidence room and into the hall (creating a fire hazard no doubt) because they had so much of it to process and couldn't get to it in time to reduce the amount coming in. In fact, the processing of the marijuana was an extremely low priority because scarier stuff was going on with other drugs at lower schedules.
If nothing else, let's argue for legalizing marijuana in AZ just to save the crime lab some hassle. (I know, I joke, but it seems like this era of prohibition should be over by now.)
