Despite this in two Staes in Oz it has been decriminalised and mostly you get a slap on the wrist for having small quantities, on a first offence, in other States.

In what continent is "OZ" ? Are we talking about Kansas ?

Organized Crime both with/without US have vested interest in keeping MJ Illegal.
This is the Perfect reason to legalize it within US for both Medical and Recreation
reasons. The tax base alone could assist in repaying National Debt.

Absolutely Anything in excess will kill you eventually. If you were to drink about 3 Gal
H2O per day before a week is out your kidneys would probably give out.
So just like with MJ, Smoke a lb of Pot / day for 20 years and your lungs will probably
be kaput. I would think though the whole time your brain would be just a bit foggy and
if you did happen to quit your brain might even clear up eventually, your lungs might not.

It might be that I might have finished a PhD in Physics had I not come across MJ in my
life (I tried it back then). More likely life got in the way of my intentions.
