Beats me...things worse than it are legal....like others have pointed out...there isn't big *pot* to line politicians pockets...so that is probably a big reason.
Going Undercover: Jeff Sessions Has Disguised Himself As A Cartel Member And Strapped Himself With A Surveillance Wire In Order To Read The Wikipedia Entry For Marijuana
I think most widely and historically illegal substances and other such items of that nature have a really tough time getting legalized in the US. There's always 19 reasons against for every reason for it seems. Why?
Money's the correct answer, right? Capitalism? Something like that?

Actually if they were smart about it there could be huge money in it for them. They're allowed to invest with insider knowledge and lots of early legislation that got shut down and some that passed had text in it securing monopolies right out of the gate.
Legal is WA state, I visit my dispensary every day and I all need is to verify that im 21 and that's it. But I'm a common custoner so they don't card me sometimes depending on the bouncer.
So many selections of weed.
Most pot smokers who visit weed legal states from non legal ones don't even know the difference between sativa and indico. like wtf have you been smoking your entire life, you're perception on marijuana is biased.
The funny thing is most cannabis shops I've been to offer active-duty military discount.
I think this sums it up pretty well.
Privately owned prisons accounted for 8% of all US prisoners. Let's keep it realistic

I don't like sessions for a variety of issues. However the Obama administration was very harsh on marijuana. They also should be as it's their job to enforce the law, not write it.

Gonzales vs Raich, drug enforcement falls under interstate commerce
Old people and all the pharmaceutical lobby groups.
I dont see any reason to make cannabis freely available. It infact is a remedy for people who suffer from pain. It should need a prescription from a doctor.
Add in the some other issues, like lobbyists from Big Pharma, Tobacco, and Alcohol... Cannabis is super easy to grow almost anywhere. We know that there are many medicinal benefits of cannabis. But if people were able to grow their own "medicine" big pharma would take a big hit and lobbyists will NOT let that happen! Tobacco is very hard to grow and alcohol is not super easy to distill, so those industries have some concern over marijuana as well.
Fanboy (Fanboi):
1. A term used towards someone when a person disagrees with the said someone on a subject, person, place, thing, company, or product line and they are not smart enough to debate their counterpoints or facts, so they resort to childish name calling in hopes of shaming others into silence and thus them winning through dominance.* 2. A term used as a taunt/peer pressure technique to shape popular opinion through shame and humiliation.
The way I've seen medicinal marijuana used for these sorts of things has been in either pill form, or a concentrate liquid form. The aspects that get you high are removed or made very weak. You'd sooner get high from Oxy's or Perc's than you would from medicinal marijuana which comes in the aforementioned forms.
