Marijuana Legalization

Marijuana legalization is a big issue in the U.S., I know that it is legal in only a few states, and some of them, medical can only be used. I know marijuana is used illegally by a lot of people and those people wish to have it legalized.

I don't know a lot about this issue and I would like to know more. I want to know when people started using it, why it's good/ bad, the affect it has on people, all the ways it is used, the pros and cons and any other information that I do not already know .

I picked this issue because I think it's going to have a big impact on my life as the years go on. Currently, they talk about legalizing it in other states and one of those states could be mine one day or I could move and it could be legal there. I think it's important for me and other Americans to know about it and how it could affect us later in life. This issue makes me think a lot and that's why I would like to know more about it.
