The reason that marijuana is, and should remain, illegal is that the drug itself is harmful to the individual and to the community. - You go the address and read what they have to say. http://www.drugabuse.gov/MarijBroch/Marijteens.html 

However, the bush administration spent millions of dollars a year on anti-marijuana ads that actually turned a more favorable impact toward using marijuana than detering people from marijuana and this link provides a pdf file of proof that marijuana is studied for medical value. http://www.cmaj.ca/cgi/rapidpdf/cmaj.091414v1


If you work you should pay taxes and if you pay taxes, your money is used on convicting marjuana users; holding down our working class, instead of helping people with stronger drug addictions such as alcohal, caffiene, methamphedimines, cracked or powered cocaine, herion, and other more harmful drugs.

Don't let the people make you believe if you smoke marijuana you have a drug problem when our own government(people) endorse alcohol, tabacco, caffeine, and 100,000's of other pills that are used, have toxic effects and can be life threatening if one overdoses.

Instead lets fight to decriminalize and eventually legalize marijuana.  Take the money out of the hands of drug dealers and put it into ligitimit businesses that America is suppose to be built on.  Then we can help our economy and not contradict it.

Congress,

according to drugabuse.gov/ and deadiversion.usdoj.gov/ 
and cmaj.ca 
we have different viewpoints.  The following are a  few key areas of concern.

According to one article from drugabuse.gov, "marijuana use by teenagers who have prior antisocial problems can quickly lead to addiction"

http://www.drugabuse.gov/MarijBroch/teenpg13-14.html#brain

However, this statement is biased because the writers do not believe marijuana has medicinal value.
If marijuana helps these people, it is of no doubt, that people could become physiologically addicted to marijuana.

In fact, on the contrary, it is laws that isolate marijuana users from society.   

Second, in the first question about marjiuana and pregnancy, the article suggests,
 
"one animal study has linked marijuana use to loss of the fetus very early in pregnancy, two studies in humans found no association between marijuana use and early pregnancy loss. More research is necessary to fully understand the effects of marijuana use on pregnancy outcome".

The writers of this article about marijuana and pregnancy even state that more research is necessary to understand the effects of marijuana use on pregnancy outcome.  We know alcohal causes problems with pregnancy.

Finally,  the key issue is, is  the classification of marijuana as a level 1, federal control substance.  Link to Federal Schedules below.. .
http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/schedules/orangebook/e_cs_sched.pdf

First marijuana is less dangerous than many drugs legal and illegal.

Tell congres that marijuana (shedule 1) is less dangerous than herion (shedule 1), cocaine (shedule 2), methanphediane (shedule 2), is more natural than shedule 3 drugs, and marijuana should be classed accordingly. 

Is it really logical to outlaw nature? 

Second point to the classification is that, the federal government claims that a drug as a schedule 1 has no medical value.

This article again may be biased because based other research it is suggested that marijuana does in fact have medical value.  See study below . .

Congress, please decriminalize marijuana so we can at least open marijuana up to educational research and prevention.
