Besides the fact that every arguement against can be easily refuted, and nearly all for it cannot, let me tell a story. I have smoked nearly everyday since i was 16. Since then I have earned a college baseball scholarship, am currently working on my masters and have had a full time job most of that time. I smoked at 7am before work everyday, on my breaks at work, before every class, before every test. This was while i was working 40 hrs/week and taking 18 hours of class. I managed to set the grading curb for many of the tests i took in courses such as Advanced Accounting, etc. I took these test while i was stoned as hell. Once i started smoking before all academic activities my GPA increased over 25%! Im not saying that would work for everyone but freedom is doing whats best for you without hurting anyone else. And to think that after i finish my masters i could have problems finding a job b/c of drug screening. Stories like this should illustrate how the government officials do NOT care one bit about all the negative implications of this prohibition. Its all about the benjamins baby. Until we get some wealthy potheads to counter the bribes of corporate America, I seriously doubt there is much else we can do.
