Cmv: it's absurd that companies can fire you for marijuana use, and not care if you get drunk each night, when the evidence says marijuana is of equal or less danger than alcohol.:
I believe there is a stigma in society toward marijuana despite the fact that usage of more dangerous drugs like alcohol and tobacco are socially acceptable. In fact, many scientists believe caffeine and maybe even sugar are more dangerous than marijuana.

This societal "norm" is the only reason that marijuana is illegal, and not allowed for many employees even in states where it is legal (Colorado and Washington). Alcohol and tobacco have hugely negative effects on our society as a whole, but going out to get a drink, or just having some beers while watching the game, are some of the most common things done either to meet people or with people you're already friends with.
