J.B. Pritzker, the Governor of Illinois released plans to legalize marijuana in Illinois. It is a divisive issue because there are people that are for it and some who are not. Most importantly is what are the ramifications of doing so?

When prohibition started it was the birth of organized crime. Now that marijuana is becoming legal in a commonly know corrupt state like Illinois, who knows what it holds. Most noteworthy is Chicago's influence on the entire state. Normally everything runs through Chicago and just trickles down to the rest of the state. It is noted that Law Enforcement and the NAACP do not agree with this legislation. So will this make even more tension with the citizens and police?

There are some positive notes though. There are benefits to marijuana like helping people with chronic pain. CBD oil is already legal and there are many benefits that people are already benefiting from. Some individuals pain is worse than others. For some marijuana helps with their anxiety and depression.

Most importantly I hope this doesn't effect kids in a negative way. Based on the study that Denver conducted on it's 5 years of legalized marijuana use things didn't turn out that bad. Let's hope Illinois can say the same 5 years later.
