Is Texas ready to legalize Marijuana?

Marijuana in Texas has always been debated. I have nothing agaisnt marijuana. People have abused it and made it into a bad habit and now its considered a drug. There have been many studies that it has helped patients with cancer,turret syndrome and many more things. They even started given it to young kids for their illness. Texas should legalized since they are losing money in oil. I completely agree that it should be legalized and tax it so Texas can make money off it. The only thing i think should be done is to make rules on people that want to consume marijuana,then it would be a more stable. “We don’t want to take something that’s illegal and is a gateway drug … and increase the use of that.” First of all is not a gateway drug, its a medicine. You can't just say its a gateway drug because there are people using it for medication or stress reliever so you can't put everyone under that category. Everyone is different and they consume it for different reasons. i really enjoyed reading the article and i think it was a great choice. The article didn't focus much on the good sides of marijuana but it made an argument on how it will help the economy get a boost.
