The legalization of medical marijuana has been a very slow process because there are two very different sides arguing over it, on one side there are people who do not believe marijuana in any form should be legal, and on the other side there are people who think it is the greatest plant ever discovered, each side has rational arguments that prevent the issue from being resolved. Those who feel that marijuana should be illegal even for medicinal purposes feel that way because there are other pharmaceuticals that can alleviate pain just as well as marijuana can that have been tested by the FDA, they also feel that if marijuana is legalized then everyone will find a way to access it. Those who feel that all marijuana should be legalized especially medicinal argue that marijuana can help take away pain without harsh side affects such as some pharmaceuticals, also marijuana has been proven to work for hundreds of health problems, and is no more dangerous then any other sort of pain killer. I personally feel that medicinal marijuana should be legalized, because someone who is dying of cancer should be able to chose how they want to soothe their pain through that ordeal, its not fair for a doctor or a government official to make that decision for them, because in the end they are the one who is suffering and they are the one who will have to deal with their illness, I also understand that marijuana can be very profitable for the economy, so why not tax it and make everyone happy.
