Question by Deino: Does a significant amount of the population really smoke marijuana?
I am a server at a restaurant, and I would say that 90%, yeah, literally 9 out of every ten servers (maybe a higher percentage is more accurate) smoke pot, among other things. I hear their arguments for it every day. They tell me how it’s “safe” and should be legalized etc.
I might add that “safe” is a funny description. I guess it’s safe compared to crack but not flying a kite? Or is it really safe, maybe if it isn’t smoked. Maybe I really don’t know.

Honestly, I’m still not going for it. I’ve never tried it, and I don’t see any convincing argument for it’s legalization outside of the fact that these kids “like” it.

However, I want to know if this drug is only common among servers and poverty class people (mainly pre-30s adults) or if it is a secret (or not so secret) pleasure that 90% of ALL Americans enjoy.
I’m not especially interested in what teenagers do, since there isn’t much consequence for their actions. i’m more interested in the rebellion among working class adults who know that they are risking their careers with this stuff.
Also, i’d rather see somebody with a more legit statistic than “a measurable number.” I’m a little perplexed as to how an answer like that is supposed to be helpful at all. If it isn’t supposed to be helpful, then I’d like to be the first to acknowledge it’s worthlessness.

If by significant you mean a measurable amount then the answer must be yes.
