I will just wait 5-10 years for the science to change again.

Good, let’s take the next logical step. If you have a child who eventually develops cancer, and it runs in your family, no coverage, shouldn’t have had the child knowing the risks.

This would be a great way to make everyone poor and/or invalid
I swear some of you are absolutely retarded. Risk pooling is not a difficult concept

All those non joggers having to fund the 50 year olds with fricked up knees, it’s a fricking tragedy.

I think the increase in availability of vape pens and edibles with THC has made it more common for younger population to be baked all day.
I believe most things in moderation can still be good for you. It’s just that the threshold is easier than ever to surpass.

All things considered, marijuana seems like a much better choice than drinking and prescription drugs.

I’m sure there are more risks involved with higher thc content.
And if you utilize / create edibles, you can control exactly what you partake.
I make brownies from a 1/4 teaspoon of weed that I grow on my land. I know what I'm getting.
I can eat a 1/4 of one of these at around 7-8 pm and feel relaxed within an hour. And guess what, the next day I wake up and I'm bright-eyed and bushy tailed. Unlike if I had a bourbon or a couple glasses of wine. I don't do this everyday, but it has replaced alcohol on the weekends. My body tells me it's a much healther vice than booze. And it's almost FREE.
I can do this legally where I live. I think all us adults should have this choice.

I have seen it kill the drive of so many young dudes.
ETA: I’m not here to defend alcohol or any other substance. Just to say that marijuana is not as harmless as people say it is.

I don’t care what people say. 5 mg of a real gummy from colorado absolutely wrecks my world. I’m not much good for anything after taking one of those and am pretty paranoid if I have to do anything remotely productive.
I just think there is a MAJOR mileage may vary from person to person with weed and due to its stigma we don’t quite realize it as a society since many have abstained. After a few days of taking gummies I was more on edge than normal and it just was not a good thing for me at all.
I hear about people taking 30+ mg in a gummy and feel I may as well go find a shaman in the Amazon if I were to ingest something like that.

Let's assume that's not true, but at the same time, assume it is no worse than alcohol or prescription drugs -
Was it a mistake for the legalization movement to push weed as a "harmless" herb? Was a cautionary approach never going to work? Are the fruits of the minimization of risk, overstatement/overselling of benefits going to be a reactionary approach to the inevitable negative consequences?
I remain, generally, in favor of legalization and I believe all of the above is true. A certain number of people are going to develop a lifelong problem with schizophrenia if they regularly use marijuana. Those people should be well-informed, in advance, of that risk.

So, in your mind, going from “individual who eats excessively and is obese resulting in society having to pay for their healthcare and disability” or “drug addict/alcoholic is carried by society” to “child is diagnosed with cancer and family has history of cancer” is the next logical step?
The retardation of that aside, that wasn’t even the original point of my previous post.
My point was, if people want to have the freedom to put whatever toxins in their body that they want, which I am completely for “in theory”, then they should also have the freedom to suffer the consequences of their choices without society having to carry them.
If you want society to carry the outcome of their poor decisions, then society should be afforded some say in what they can and cannot do.

Heart attacks is interesting.
I wonder if method of consumption matters.
I don’t think in general vape pens can be good for you and dabs also seem terrible for you.
