Narrowing My Focus

Several of the questions I developed for this project stood out to me for various reasons.

1. What are the social and economic benefits gained from the legalization of marijuana?

2. What are the health implications?

3. What does marijuana's illegal role play in the contribution of violence and crime in the U.S.?

I thought that these three questions cover the most stuff and offer a broad range of discussion to be had. In order for marijuana to become legal, there has to be a benefit to the U.S. Along with that, is it safe for the public? Knowing marijuana's role on human health will be a huge factor in determining the legal status of it. Lastly, I want to know if legalizing marijuana will reduce the crime rates and violence in this country that is often fueled by drugs and gangs trafficking them. Will legalizing marijuana, and making it easier to obtain through legal methods curb the violence?
