"Reefer Madness"

I want to smoke weed...legally. Some other countries have no problem with letting their citizens smoke all the weed they want. We can't even legalize most hemp products here in the United States because Bush is afraid of "Reefer Mania." Well most people don't realize that hemp products can be used as fuel, and that the cannibis plant has a really fast growth cycle of 8-10 weeks..which would be an amazing renewable resource. Plus, we could all be that much happier. People wouldn't be getting arrested for smoking weed or selling weed because it would be okay. It should have the same laws as alcohol in the United States and have a harsh penalty if abused during driving or operating machinary or something like that. I mean, medicinal weed is legal in most states, which is good because obviously people who are suffering need it, but why not let us all have some in the process? I know this argument makes me sound like a pot head, I'm not at all actually, but I mean it's been an argument for such a long time and there are so many benefits including the fuel benefit that you get from the plant itself. Forget burning fossil fuels, let's all burn weed and get stoned while we drive around. People would just be less stressed, bad lungs probably, but definitely less stressed out.
