"COLORADO KIDS PAY BIG PRICE FOR STATE’S DECISION TO LEGALIZE MARIJUANA [UPDATED]
The returns are in on Colorado’s decision to legalize marijuana: (1) Large amounts of money are being made thanks to legalization, privately and by the state; (2) “horrible things are happening to kids.”

The quotation is from psychiatrist Libby Stuyt. She treats teens in southwestern Colorado and has studied the health effects of high-potency marijuana. Stuyt says: “I see increased problems with psychosis, with addiction, with suicide, with depression and anxiety” stemming from legalization in the state.

I have read the article and it seems inevitable that medical science would finally catch up to the
societal norm....vapping is exposing medical problems also. THIS is very similar to the scenario
of how supremely cool it was to have cigarette holders/cases and blowing smoke rings back in the day...and the industry KNEW the medical side of the equation and STILL produced profitable and prolific advertisements of a way of life that was rich and rewarding....and we bought into with
a vengeance. The result? catastrophic and costly health issue that end in death.
