When and Why Did Cannabis Become Illegal in the United States?
Question by I changed my name.: When and why did Cannabis become illegal in the United States?
I need FACTS, I’m doing a paper and I’m arguing FOR legalization. I need to know when it actually became illegal, who was mainly responsible for it and most importantly, WHY it’s a banned substance.
If you have a reliable source, that’s even better. So far I can’t find anything on the interweb machine that doesn’t sound like it was written by a brain surgeon. By the way, I’m not asking you to do my paper; I have written most of it already. All I need is this to finish it.

Inpatient Drug Rehab in NYC/5 Boroughs?
Question by jej: Inpatient drug rehab in NYC/5 boroughs?
I have a friend who is ready to check into a rehab for his drug addiction, however, he is on methadone maintenance and does not want to quit it. I was told by a rehab center in NYC that no New York state inpatient program will accept a methadone patient if they are on more than 40 milligrams, then a mental health clinician told me that is not true. Does anyone know of an inpatient program in the 5 boroughs or Westchester County NY that will allow him to be maintained on methadone? I googled but could not find much. Thanks.
