The question of whether or not to consider marijuana a viable medical treatment remains a hot button issue. In states like California, medical marijuana clubs have flourished despite their federal illegality. Should the federal government allow states to make their own decisions, or is marijuana nothing more than a dangerous narcotic? <br/><br/> Experts on the "Yes" side: <ul> <li>National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws</li> <li>Marijuana Policy Project</li> <li>Americans for Safe Access</li> </ul> Experts on the "No" side: <ul> <li>Drug Free America Foundation</li> <li>Dr. Eric Voth</li> </ul> Sat, 21 Mar 2009 01:24:21 -0500 http://www.opposingviews.com/questions/should-medical-marijuana-be-federally-legalized http://www.opposingviews.com/questions/should-the-us-legalize-marijuana The recreational use of marijuana has been glamorized over the years by such on-screen duos as Cheech & Chong and Harold & Kumar, but is the drug everything that Hollywood makes it out to be?

With passionate believers on both sides of the argument, it will be interesting to see what happens when the smoke clears. <br/><br/> Experts on the "Yes" side: <ul> <li>National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws</li> </ul> Experts on the "No" side: <ul> <li>Dr. Kevin Sabet</li> <li>David Evans</li> </ul> Wed, 05 Nov 2008 11:19:02 -0600 http://www.opposingviews.com/questions/should-the-us-legalize-marijuana
