I've known several individuals (and they have known significantly more, themselves) for whom legal cannabis was able to help them break opioid addiction. I know this study is about chronic pain, but it's (anecdotally, I admit) helpful even without physical pain. And it's worth considering that legalizing cannabis can help these populations get some of the help they need -- and get on drugs that won't kill them, put them in the hospital, or cost them so much money they'll commit horrible crimes to get their fix.
