Washington D.C. to consider legalizing MaryJane Weed

MaryJane weed does not harm IQ
January 18, 2013Norwegian sociologist Ole Rogeberg of the Economic Research Center of Ragnar Frisch in Oslo questioned the conclusions of his American counterparts, who said that smoking “weed” in adolescence is fraught with mental decline by an average of 10.8 points during mature age.
According to Rogerberg, American scientists made a number of methodological errors. In particular, they did not take account of the socio-economic status and ethnicity of those participating in the experiment, which could significantly distort the final results.
Rogerberg proved that it is not only drugs that affect IQ, but also income, education, employment and marital status. If a person fails all four spheres, his or her intelligence deteriorates without drugs. The fans of marijuana from poor families become addicts more often than children from rich and middle class families.
Rogerberg adds that the IQ of people of limited means declines stronger than that of well-to-do individuals. Poor people can not afford or desire for further education, and their work activities very often involve no mental activity. For this reason, the researcher notes, marijuana should not be considered the sole or determining cause of declining IQ.

November 21, 2012“During his first term, President Obama really disappointed those of us who hoped he might follow through on his campaign pledges to respect state medical marijuana laws,” said Neill Franklin, a Baltimore narcotic officer who serves as executive director of Law Enforcement Against Prohibition. “Still, I’m hopeful that in his second term he’ll realize the political opportunity that exists to do the right thing. Polls show 80% support for medical marijuana, and in Colorado marijuana legalization got more votes than the president did in this most recent election.”
