Eric Schlosser is the author of “Reefer Madness.”  He tells Steve Paulson that penalties in some states for marijuana possession exceed those for murder while in other states, possession ranks with parking fines, and that marijuana provides a huge underground cash crop in hard-hit farm states like Indiana. Schlosser says our marijuana laws have a lot to do with class and race prejudice.

I've never done marijuana before but studies confirm that you get high from it.
