Would legalizing marijuana be a good thing or bad thing?
Would most likely end up being a good thing. The plant gets demonized too much - you can still smoke the drug *and* properly function as a member of society. What you do with it determines you, but I don't think we're going to see a population full of pothead zombies.
Oh, and legalization doesn't immediately get rid of social taboos, so you've still got that to work with. I'm not even sure if that's half the battle. It might not even be.
