It is said that there is one thing that divides men more than any other.....ideas.  If you are from the generation of live and be free then you are probably cheering for the legalization of Marijuana.  There are now five states which can sell marijuana and three of which have pending cases to do so. The question becomes, is it a good thing for the country to freely distribute a narcotic for recreational use.

There are arguments on both sides, but there is also danger on both sides.  If alcohol is any guide it provides statistics that are, well very sobering.  Everyday 28 people will die due to drunk driving. There are over 300,000 incidents of drunk driving every day and it costs America $132 Billion Dollars a year to police.  They say marijuana is just like alcohol, but can we stand to double these numbers, and can we pay for them, and pay for them in blood.
