Marijuana is never gonna be legalized in US. The current private prison system, the ghettos, supplying soldiers (most with fathers in jail) for the military, etc. works too well for the elite to be messed with.

  soldiers (most with fathers in jail)

Sounds made up. Citation?

I've talked with 50 or so US marines (used to live near a base), most of them grew without father for different reasons, usually jail.

What does Washington and Colorado mean for the above now?

[Strshps1MoreTim → damncabbage]

I'd guess in those states there are not that many private prisons.

It'd be really interesting to run the numbers on this... would Wolfram Alpha have that data?

Looks like Colorado is actually #7, and Washington, while low (4.8%) has more than ~30 other states.
