What other effects could there be if more and more of the population gets hooked on weed for recreation? Note, this is no longer about medical reasons its for recreation.

How it will affect how masses of people think, behave, evaluate their surroundings and events, suggestibility, tolerance and so on.

Yeah ok sure its the next wonder drug or plant/herb whatever you wanna call it. But cant anyone see anything behind all of this? Im pretty sure when over the counter painkillers were introduced it was like a modern miracle...

Is the move just because of the tax money, licenses, fees and basic bureaucracy? Or is it because pharma and big corp decided to start taking over, again just money?

I doubt whatever questions raised would change the situation so if you love weed, just thinking about this wont result in it being taken from you.
