Boo! Legalization of Marijuana

Nowadays, marijuana is utilized so deeply in the American society. From teenagers to adults, they all use marijuana with various reasons; teens use marijuana to get “high” and elders, the adults, use marijuana to cure their sickness.  Over 30 states out of all 50 states in America, which is the 60 percent of the United States, have legalized the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes.  However, some states such as Alaska, Colorado, Oregon, and Washington, as well as Washington D.C. etc., have legalized the use of marijuana not only for the medicinal use, but also for the recreational use.  Yes, there are no doubts that marijuana, for reasons such as getting one who is ill to eat and helping relieve the pain in cancer patients, is helpful.  But, does that mean that it isn’t harming one’s body as well?  The main problem argued in this essay is that marijuana, whether it is practiced as a medicinal purpose or for recreational purpose, causes problems both physically and mentally such as, memory disorder in brain and strong mental reliance.  Of course, the severity of these problems differentiates with the users’ body health conditions, the quantity of marijuana used, and the amount of time they used marijuana.  However, that does not mean the usage of marijuana is healthier to human body or the legalization of public use of marijuana is beneficial to the whole society definitely clear that there is going to be a problem of usage of marijuana, which makes the legalization of the usage of marijuana seem so skeptical.
