People were smoking weed even when it was socially unacceptable and illegal. Then they were going to jail for a decade or more because of it. This simply did not make any sense. I believe most of this is a backlash effect.

Weed was the worst thing ever. Weed is the best thing ever. Eventually weed will be in the same category as coffee.

I'd be real happy if we landed on "edibles" and not smoking though.

Just about all drugs would benefit from people doing the unobtrusively.
