Legalize Weed or Not?

You can't vote about this one without knowing the lesser known facts, or it would just be dope heads vs those who haven't had a single puff of join all their life. It's not necessary to try it, but knowing more might even out the voting ratio.

Marijuana is stated to have almost exactly the same intoxicating effect as booze. You get dizzy/buzzed, you become less sensible, you lose inhibitions, you find yourself unable to function properly, and in may cause you to pass out. Liquor and marijuana both has their negative hazards and positive health benefits, and the facts are backed up by scientific research. For some, the only difference between the two is their labeled effect, one is called being drunk, while the other is called being high. Others argue that "drunk" and "high" are just two different ways to say intoxicated. There are also some who treats the issue in a financial manner, saying the tax money that can be collected from marijuana sales can give a boost to a country's economy. Let's see what the voting public has to say.


If liquor is legal, should they legalize marijuana in the Philippines as well?
Yes, I think marijuana and liquor just has the same intoxicating effects. ------------------------------
No, being high is far worse than being drunk.
