Research Memo

Hypothesis:

In conducting this research I found out that the government did not want to legalize medical cannabis because there are too many marijuana dealers. That makes it where they cannot tax it due to the dealers doing it for no taxes. After choosing my main question it was branched off in to 8 different questions which are shown in the chart below.  My belief is that marijuana should be legal to the people who need it. This is because it helps with many different diseases. Plus if the government were to legalize it then there would be less people in jail and that leaves more room for the serial killers and rapist

Content: 

In distributing the surveys my audience was everyone. That was so that there was an even selection of data. I wanted to find regular day civilian and people who actually knew

What marijuana was used for? I figured That regular citizens would not support legalizing medical marijuana and those who knew what is was for and needed it would support legalizing it. I figured this because people who know what cannabis is used for know that people need it to help with their appetite or Alzheimer’s. This brings us to my survey.
