"In 2006, marijuana was named America's most valuable cash crop, with an estimated production value exceeding $35 billion annually, which exceeds corn and wheat production combined.

Decriminalization of cannabis could have a number of benefits, from increased taxes to governments and additional health options for medically qualified individuals."
