Gupta: No On Marijuana

Posted by Kathryn Muratore on January 8, 2009 10:51 AM | Post a civil, substantive, and intelligent comment

Potential Surgeon General, Sanjay Gupta, speaks out against marijuana legalization. His arguments are not compelling; marijuana legalization proponents generally do not say that smoking pot is good for otherwise healthy individuals. Rather, they point to the loss of liberty and increase in crime that go along with prohibitions. See Mark Thornton’s Economics of Prohibition and his podcast with Lew.
