All your prohibitionist FUD cannot make your errant claim real.

I don't know and don't want to know what "FUD" is. However, the medical research showing long-term to permanent damage to brain structures involved in functions like motivation, self-control, etc., resulting from use of marijuana is quite real. The amount of data establishing the damaging effects of marijuana use is growing daily.

Slick marketing can't change that.

I'm worried about the long-term effects, when there is a huge cohort of marijuana-damaged individuals who are burdens to working people. How many more non-productive citizens can our society support? I think we are close to a tipping point as it is, without adding legalized marijuana into the mix.

"I don't know and don't want to know what "FUD" is." FUD fəd/Submit noun fear, uncertainty and doubt, usually evoked intentionally in order to put a competitor at a disadvantage. "However, the medical research showing long-term to permanent damage to brain structures involved in functions like motivation, self-control, etc., resulting from use of marijuana is quite real. The amount of data establishing the damaging effects of marijuana use is growing daily." Yet, you seem unable or unwilling to post links to this "data" to validate your claims. Why won't you share your "data'? "I'm worried about the long-term effects," I doubt that. People who are truly worried about don't push fallacy as fact. Nanny-state prohibitionists on the other hand...
