The finding is true regardless of whether a state legalized medical marijuana
Young people living in liberal states consume more marijuana, but have lower rates of marijuana dependence, according to a new study from Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health. Crucially, this finding is true regardless of whether the state legalized medical marijuana, suggesting that the broader political climate affects how people use the drug. It also serves as a reminder that the effects of legalization will look different in different states.
================================================
Interesting study result. '33 states have legalized medical marijuana, while 10 have legalized recreational marijuana. As approval continues to grow, plenty of researchers are curious about how legalization will affect health outcomes.'
