Courier-Post, 24 Nov 2012 – It is very promising to learn that Colorado and Washington State legalized marijuana for all adults, as the result of voter referendums on Nov. 6. Recreational marijuana will now be controlled, taxed and regulated by those states in a way similar to alcohol. Legitimate businesses will be licensed to sell marijuana. New Jersey arrests approximately 25,000 people per year for marijuana offenses and has a 9.8 percent unemployment rate. It is time that New Jersey legalizes marijuana to create jobs, reduce crime and lower taxes.
