I agree with you, as you would notice if you saw my other comments in this thread. But I'm wondering about the harms to society that we don't fully understand yet, and how we can mitigate them.

Legalizing alcohol was for the best, because it eliminated the organized crime aspect. But it came with serious harms to society that we really haven't done a good job of mitigating. Alochol destroys so many lives and kills so many people each year.

I'm asking, how we can not make that mistake again. To be clear, whatever the harms of normalized cannabis use in society, it will be far less than alcohol.
