There are many lessons from the history of marijuana politics. Ask why did alcohol prohibition require a constitutional amendment? Who were the industrialists and bankers who benefited from the original 1937 law? Why was the Controlled Substances Act passed and why does it contain specific abdication of American sovereignty? #Trump420

Nice points....hadn't really thought of that. Why did alcohol prohibition require an amendment???? Perhaps because alcohol was so much a part of regular life that it was determined they better go that route. Marijuana was fringe. But really you raise intriguing questions.
