About this ebook
It is high time to think sanely about marijuana.
Reefer Sanity offers a solution to the long-had debate about marijuana—one that steers clear of policy extremes, challenges assumptions, and shifts the emphasis to education, intervention, and common sense.
A former Senior Advisor in President Obama's drug policy offer, Kevin Sabet conscientiously examines the socio-economic consequences and the intractable "myths" concerning marijuana that essentially prevent transformative civic progress. Using meticulous and relevant research, Sabet demonstrates how both the oppositional stances of the marijuana debate—"legalization" in one hand, "incarceration" in the other—are flawed and simply hinder our ability to find any better possible solutions.
Ultimately, there are other, smarter, methods for reform than either full-fledged legalization or tactless arrests, and before committing completely to either, these other possibilities deserve to be brought to the awareness and attention of the public. It is high time we all begin thinking sanely about marijuana.
