Excessive use of alcohol is bad for you, really messes up your body. Responsible use of this drug, and it is a drug, is not, in fact, it can actually be good for you.
As for the being bad for you but legal... cigarettes. The reason for things that are bad for you being legal is simple - money. Cigarettes have no redeeming quality whatsoever save for making some people really stupid rich.
Weed: blame Reefer Madness and the fact that Weed is considered a 'starter' drug. It is assumed that if you smoke weed, you will probably try harder stuff.

Any thing that can harm your health is bad for you. But it doesn't only harm your health, and that includes weed, it can cause you to loose your perspective, and it can cause you to not be able to react in time if you are driving a car. It is legal to people over 21. I guess that they think that a person should be mature enough to handle it with some responsibility by that age. But not all of that age are responsible either.
Sorry to all who disagree with me, but I use to be a clerk in a store that sold it, and I have seen a lot.

Okay, put the bong down 'cuz here comes your answer.
The almighty dollar. The government can tax tobacco and alcohol easily and heavily, but knows that if marijuana were legal, then everyone would try to grow their own.
Now you can go back to "expanding your consciousness" or whatever you wanna call it.

Lots of bad things are legal... soda, chocolate, cars kill lots of people a year with accidents... even living in Alaska could be bad for you. I don't understand why one thing is considered legal and another thing is illegal... it's all about lobbying.

Let's add cigarettes to the list...it's all about how much money the governments can make & nothing to do with what is good or bad for a person.

What about weed? People talk about it a lot, so it must have a great influence on people.
