i don't think marijuana is harmless, but it should be legal.
It'll be illegal for a long time, though- albiet perhaps illegal but decrimmed. Ultimately, yes, because of money. Also because people are stupid, and assume that if the law says it's an "illegal drug," it must be "BAD." Whereas, of course, psychoactive drugs that pharmaceutical companies push on little kids despite knowing the potential hazards of doing so must be "GOOD" because they are "legal." It makes me want to hit my head against a goddamn wall.
