In this moment of national economic crisis, the top four questions under the heading of “Financial security” concerned marijuana; on the budget, people voted up questions about marijuana to positions 1-4; marijuana was in the first and third positions under “jobs”; people boosted a plug for legalizing marijuana to No. 2 under “health care reform.” And questions about decriminalizing pot occupied spots 1 and 2 under “green jobs and energy.”
This is pretty funny. It's absurd that Marijuana is illegal while booze isn't, but still there are obviously more important things to ask the president about. And he's got more important things to worry about, too.

three reasons:
1) Cannabis was made illegal with great pressure from industry that wanted to use wood products instead of hemp -- even though hemp is much easier to grow, much more effective, cost efficient, and useful.
Strike 1 for greed
2) Cannabis has over 120 psychoactive compounds. The FDA is nervous about any drug with more than 1 or to compounds in it.
Strike 2 for incompetence
3) Cannabis is a highly effective drug and could wipe out huge profits by competing with much more dangerous and deadly and expensive pharmaceuticals. Plus, it has the effect of calming the population, reducing their work ethic, and creating a healthier population. All three of these effects are not good for our gross domestic product.
Strike 3 for insantity.
Pot smokers, go take head meds and join Britney Spears! Support our corporate prison system! Support our drug industry!
Weed should be legal obviously, alcohol is more addictive (not for you), abusive and violent - but maybe you should settle down w your weed rhetoric, pot head.
