Stop marijuana legalization

The people that are in a position to stop this madness are only concerned about how much money they can make.

Recent letter writer Kevin Sheeler is to be applauded for writing the truth about marijuana, but unfortunately the people that are in a position to stop this madness are only concerned about how much money they can make.

Kevin O’Leary from the program Shark Tank said he could make billions of dollars in the U.S. by going into the marijuana business but was afraid of a federal law that could send him to jail.

Justin Trudeau can’t wait to legalize pot and he has seen the devastation and misery it causes up close and personal.

Legalization won’t stop the lowlife scum that peddle pot to our underage population — it’s all about money, money, money. These people don’t care about the health of those that fall victim to this insidious drug. All legalization will do is transfer the money to bigger pockets and give crime an era of respectability.

Hopefully the government will allot some of their ill-gotten money to the health care system.
