I smoked weed frequently for like six months. I stopped due to increased anxiety and coughing.

Anxiety is caused by weed
Coughing is caused by smoking

chemically it contains no addictive properties, but it's extremely easy to become psychologically addicted to becoming high. also it's really god damn expensive anyways, so it's better to have money then weed, because you'll never have weed then money.

I can't say it's by any means good, but it's on the level of Alcohol and Tobacco, there's no reason those should be legal but Marijuana illegal.

wouldn't the price drop a lot if it were legalized? (due to short supply but high demand / inflated prices by dealers)

It's legal here and society has yet to collapse.

EDIT: Having said that, I don't personally think using it's a particularly good idea. It's less harmful, I believe, than alcohol or tobacco, but smoking is never good.

part of the problem is, increasingly, domestic supply is outpacing foreign, aka the mexican drug cartels, however they maintain price levels simply because it's either a) more expensive and dangerous to produce domestically and b) because they can. if it does end up becoming legalized, the best we can hope for is that demand will remain rocksteady, since otherwise demand goes up with a static supply, and price goes up. only after a few years of increasing supply would we see any sort of price decline.
