An eye opening talk on the socioeconomic repercussions marijuana illegality has had on homeless and minority populations. Kadens explores the potential impact of marijuana legalization.
Pete worked in investment banking prior to founding the world's first outsource sales company and later founded SoCore Energy, serving clients like Target, Walgreens, and JC Penny. He is now writing his first book and moving into the medical marijuana industry. His success has helped fuel his philanthropic efforts in creating employment opportunities for the homeless and incarcerated.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

in 1968 when I was a teenager, I was aware that those who drank ("boozers") were noisier, more aggressive and violent than those of us smoking weed ("stoners"). While they were yelling and fighting we were giggling and laid back. Alcohol is a lot more destructive than cannabis. There are liquor stores all around my city; cannabis is illegal.

*Rolls eyes Yet another person on the internet wanting marijuana legalised. Drugs affect poor people more so of course banning them would. If drugs are legal like alcohol they'll be made as much and consumed as much and people's health will suffer as much. Legalising drugs because alcohol is legal is 2 wrongs make a right logic.

This successful Bucknell graduate hits us with the discrimination/life ain't fair for minorities BS. If he really wanted to legalize pot, he would talk about how many college educated whites have had their futures tarnished because of marijuana charges. Sell to the audience that can actually make changes to the law, not the people that already agree with your viewpoints.
