Complications within the marijuana debate

[TaraJo]

So, this is something that came up in my government class and I thought I'd ask what people think of it here.

Marijuana is going to become legal, it's just a question of when. The public has been getting increasingly supportive of decriminalizing it, but then that brings in another problem.

Right now, marijuana is generally less damaging to your health than tobacco. It's nothing about marijuana being inherently healthier or safer or anything, but because of all the additives put in the cigarettes.

So, when marijuana becomes legal, what's the obvious thing to happen? Big companies are going to distribute it and they're going to do so the same way they do tobacco. All those additives and chemicals and other junk that gets added to tobacco..... those are going right into the marijuana.

So, what do you think should be done about this? Should they just be allowed to add all kinds of toxins to marijuana? Why or why not? If not, what should be done to prevent it?
