11.28.11 Green Opinion

By Chris D.
Marijuana - 1

 

Green opinion is changing, and I'm not referring to the environmental kind. According to some recent gallup polls, roughly half of America believes weed should come out from underground, as this little infographic on changing attitudes about pot reveals.

In 1969, less than 20% of the public supported legalizing marijuana. Today, the figure’s around 50% (and growing). And it’s not like pot is the huge generational divide it used to be. Yeah, the young’uns are likely to favor legalization (62% of Americans 18 to 29) but so are their parents, aunts, and uncles (56% of Americans 30 to 49).
