    Marijuana
    Weed, cannabis, pot, ganja etc. It goes by many names, but its
    most well known name worldwide is marijuana. It’s the drug that has
    seen the most spotlight because of the heated debate if its use should
    be legally allowed. In some countries, marijuana is legally used by adults
    for recreational and medical use. But there are those who seem to think
    that marijuana should be illegal, regardless of the use. Personally, I see
    no problem with the legalization and use of the herb, as long as we use
    it only to benefit mankind.
    Marijuana is used for its medicinal properties. Doctors say it can
    help with nausea during chemotherapy, chronic pain and muscle
    spasms. It also is said to be able to treat forms of epilepsy. Marijuana is
    also used in some religions, the most famous being rastafarian. The
    rastafari believe smoking the herb brings them closer to their god,
    Selassie. Other religions that use the herb are Sikhism, Taoism and
    Hinduism.
    However, some people use marijuana to destroy the lives of
    others. Marijuana is said to make people violent when smoked. In 2016,
    a man murdered his wife while he was on a high. It also can increase the
    risk of lung cancer when smoked. Marijuana is also used to make people
    rich illegally. Marijuana is sold illegally for very high prices up to $18 a
    gram which means 1 kilo of weed would cost up to $18,000 . There have
    been cases where customs officers have found up to 100 kilos which
    following the math, would be worth $1,800,000.
    Marijuana is a plant, medicinal herb and illegal drug for some. I
    see no problem with the legalization of the plant, because it’s just
    another plant that can be used for medicinal purposes. Marijuana is also
    used for religious purposes by various people whose have beliefs that
    we have no right to infringe on. But, they are also others who have lost
    everything and more to the plant. Marijuana could be used to cure
    cancer in the future, or it could create more cancer. But who knows?
