16. Big Marijuana:
The legalization of marijuana is about making a small number of businesspeople rich. They have set up private equity firms and fundraising organizations to attract investors and promote items such as marijuana food items, oils, and other products. Science has proven โ and all major scientific and medical organizations agree โ that marijuana is both addictive and harmful to the human brain. By legalizing marijuana, the government would be ushering in a new, for-profit industry โ not different from Big Tobacco. Cannabis food and candy are being marketed to children and are already responsible for a growing number of marijuana-related ER visits.
