The title of this blog post is an apparent question posed by some of my readers. I will admit, I find the idea of a presidential candidate legalizing marijuana while they are in office interesting. However, that is not the focus of this blog post. I want to talk about the broader effect legalization would have on our society. I have been thinking about this for some time, but yesterday, reading about the history of marijuana legalization, the subject struck me as sufficiently important to write about.

If you aren’t actively following the marijuana legalization movement at the current time, then you are probably living under a rock. Attorney General Jeff Sessions is the latest person from the Trump administration to take a hard stance against marijuana. In a recent interview he stated that “it is time to end the federal policies that prohibit states from carrying out their own marijuana policies.” While President Donald Trump recently gave Sessions the green light, it remains to be seen whether or not he will be able to make good on his promise.
