News in Review Marijuana: Taking Another Look
As society has advanced scientifically, new medications and new uses for old "drugs" have been discovered. However, new attitudes and new problems have surfaced as well. Determining what is a legitimate medication, what should be a "controlled drug", and what are in fact uncontrolled or "recreational" drugs, is a complex social question, not to mention the dependancy and substance abuse issues. From heroin, to alcohol, to cigarettes, to marijuana, society has always had to weigh the rights of the few against the greater good of the whole.
