Why wait 20 years? Look at Portugal or the Netherlands today.

  The culture surrounding weed was no the same back then. Now they almost want to sell it as a healthy snack.

    What about the hippies from the 60s? Surely there are more sample populations.

      Maybe I have a wrong perception but I think weed is more widespread today and more acceptable than it was back then.

        More widespread and acceptable but that doesn’t mean that individuals are smoking more, just that more people are indulging. Even that may not be a large, overall increase from the studies I’ve seen. The main effect of legalization in our area was that it was no longer hidden.

          More widespread means more people are smoking. And culturally now it's seen as normal as alcohol. Kids here smoke as soon as they start high school, that's around 12-13 years. After a couple years they gather before school starts to smoke, then go to class, then smoke again.
