Since there is no logical reason for marijuana to be illegal, I have always suspected that not only the drug companies but the alcohol, tobacco and cotton industries are spreading money around Washington, D.C., to keep marijuana illegal. It's all about money. Those people think they will lose a lot of money if marijuana is legalized, but how can you lose what you don't have? They may not make the obscene profits they're used to making, but they're not losing anything. It's nothing more than basic greed. People's health doesn't matter when it comes to the almighty dollar.
