Professor Vincent Gilhooley: SungHo 103
OUTLINE
Marijuana the miracle worker
For centauries we have misjudged and misused a miracle worker, the cannabis or
more known as a killer drug, marijuana. We have tried to stop the usage of it from the face of
the planet. But now many countries and some U.S. states are legalizing marijuana.
1. It can increase domestic market spending
To start with, government can collect taxes through increased domestic market
spending because of cannabis. which can be used to develop public facilities and contributed
to governments development. Either way, if the country is banning the marijuana, people
will buy their cannabis from black market brokers. Which mean they are won't be paying the
taxes. The amounts of marijuana being sold in the United States that are not taxed is beyond
imaginable.
ex) Colorado, U.S. government has legalized marijuana and has earned 200 million dollars at
a first month and they are estimating that they can gain 6700 million dollars a year.

2. by allowing marijuana, it can create various jobs for people and can make tourism to thrive
by allowing selling marijuana in an open market, it can create jobs from marijuana
farm-bailiff, manufacturer, distribution enterprise to store owner.
ex) budtender ) This job is offering people different types of marijuana just like how
bartenders do.
*Medical usage* It could sound shockingly to many people but marijuana can be used as
medical treatment for ill people, and very good at doing it too
3.

ex) In United States, 20 states have allowed the use of marijuana as a medical purpose.
Marijuana can be used to restraint patients who are suffering from epilepsy, seizure, nausea.
by using marijuana, people can exploit new medicines.
*Good topic!*
