It’s not legal federally. What that means is that the cops don’t prosecute you

Cops don't prosecute. They arrest. When was the last federal prosecution for marijuana possession in the state of Michigan? Answer, not one since legalization.

Cops would arrest then turn it over to the prosecutor, I know that. But at the same time who determines what sort of charges you would get? Is it dependent on who arrests you or on how much you had? I’m guessing in a legalized state there isn’t much need for semi-trucks of marijuana coming into the state.

I don't think the war on drugs -is- the problem; though I don't think it is helping the problem.

The problem is, why do so many Americans feel the need to take drugs in the first place? I get Bryce's point about fentanyl specifically being a particularly nasty drug, but I'm just asking this question in general. An overall happy, thriving society should not have such a high percentage of its population feel the need to seek drugs.

Totally agree, the Republicans wars in the middle-east and low paying jobs that go nowhere have created many self-medicating vets.
