The topic of this research will be the examination of the historical prohibition of the medicinal and recreational use of marijuana in the United States. Explain the history of the prohibition of the drug as well as drawing on similarities between the treatments of marijuana to that of alcohol during prohibition during the early part of last century in the US. Discuss the economic impact of marijuana prohibition on the American tax payer in regard to the war on drugs, as well as the impact of lost tax revenue that would be raised if the drug were decriminalized, regulated, and taxed in the manner that cigarettes and alcohol are. Explore why the criminal justice system in the US enforces morality laws at the federal level on certain drugs, and how the war on drugs wastes resources that could be focused on other, more severe threats to the public. The 3 main questions I want explored are, 1) should the federal government enforce marijuana prohibition, in a similar manner to the failed prohibition of alcohol? 2) What are the socioeconomic impacts of the war on drugs, in regard to marijuana? 3) What would the effects of marijuana legalization be on the United States, both positive and negative?
