Colorado began allowing the sale of recreational marijuana on January 1 to anyone age 21 or older. Residents can now buy marijuana like alcohol -- except the cannabis purchase is limited to an ounce, which is substantial enough to cost about $200 or more.
The year 2013 marked the first time that more than 50 percent of Americans polled said that they supported legalizing marijuana â the same year that Colorado and Washington voted to legalize marijuana for recreational use, Gallup said. Last year, 58 percent of Americans said they thought using pot should be legal. In the upcoming election on Nov. 8, five states â California, Arizona, Massachusetts, Maine and Nevada â will vote on whether to legalize marijuana for recreational use. Recreational marijuana is currently legal in four states and the District of Columbia. Support for legalizing marijuana has increased more among younger people, with those in older age groups, Gallup said.
