The reason is more for sole profit than health benefits ,infact its even more sinister ploy by the goverment to create divosion amongst races and increase prizes and start a race war
For Meleninaials we have know weed is not bad
Counting the deaths of alone from substance abuse
Alchohol kils 88,000 yearly
Tobacoo kills 480,000 yearly
Marijuana has killed absolutely No One (beuru of Forensic Science NYC )....

For most people weed is essentially harmless

Because they already wanted to 'kill the person's
Weed has nothing to do with the killing , it makes him enjoy the moment but weed never instigates the killing

But that does not mean it's perfectly safe if you're under 23, and take marijuana it could lead to memory problems and poor cognative funtions , but if you're an adult then it really is your choice .
Thing is if your brain is finished developing ,and you use it responsibly Weed is no big deal on fact Humans have been using marijuana for millions of years growing hemp as food medicines oil , or even for plain old recreation ,

In 1936 The Federal beurue of Narcotics , knew if they did not criminalize a drug soon their funding would get cut short and , the Narcotics agency would primarily be a toothless bulldoll , knowing this Shilinger had a plan that would drive to races at a drug war , he knew the Americans hated the Mexicans and hence just had to associste Marijuana with Mexicans , and he then made a public press interview that marijuana made 'Mexicans thirst for white women , and it brings in it's users insanity, immorality and death ' yes this was a real quote
Before long the frenzy was all over the media and the movies , with headlines reading
'weed Smoking Mexican robs Taravan'
And a movie where investigations led to a boy under the influence of marijuana used an axe to muder his whole family , the weed propaganda was working

In 1937 , Congress banned marijuana and with slinglers help they will put any one caught with marijuana behind bars for as long as ten years ,
Of course the govermgove knew Slingers claims were false but because of the heavy competition Tobacoo served against native marijuana , they saw it profitable that only ciggettes be alone be allowed over the counter

And this was the time Nixon came to Power and Nixon been Nixon , '''he had zero chill for drugs' and even began the campaign against drugs to obviously feed his election using the marijuana propaganda , unconsciously the drug dwelled within people as a criminal drugs that would cause madness and criminality on it's users.



Real Quote from one on Nixon's Aide .

MANY PEOPLE TAKE ALCOHOL TO SUPPORT THEIR MORALE TO DO CRIME. WHY HAS ALCOHOL NEVER BEEN BANNED?
IT IS ALSO A LEADING CAUSE OF LIVER/KIDNEY/BRAIN DISEASES, AND ULTIMATELY DEATH. YET, IT IS AVAILABLE FOR ANYBODY ANYWHERE ANYTIME.

i think the major reason why weed is illegal is because the govt wont see taxes from it like other tobacco products.
