I for one used to smoke pot....when I was younger...I finally decided to quit...as I saw it was causing me personal problems. I was not going anywhere in my life, and I wanted more. in order to do that I needed to quit smoking pot.
Lo and behold...I started to become successful in my job, and finances. I also started to see the world more clearly.
Do I believe we can do without it, and use if for only medical purposes...YES
In my eyes...when the SHTF you will be able to think more clearly...but that is only my opinion.

Similarily, I experienced the same effects when I got my drinking under control.

I am aware that smoking too much can and will sap my motivation, hence my refusal to do so.
