1. No Addiction is a benefit for our country

The banner stretches across the entire store “we are now accepting applicants”. After witnessing this banner over a lengthy time I inquired with the manager on why they cannot fill their vacancies? Apparently the candidates cannot pass a drug screen test required for employment and current individuals on payroll are terminated because of drug use in the workplace.

California is always falling into the ocean because of earthquakes, drugs and alcohol and unchristian like behavior, and the list can go on and on and on because we are the state of milk and honey.

Addictions to marijuana have all the drug dealers living in the lap of luxury today. Addiction to alcohol and all the alcohol related businesses are also living in the lap of luxury today.

I witnessed a large support for legalizing marijuana and I have reservations on the justifications for its merit today or in its future in America for no addiction is a benefit for our country.
