The more cannabis you smoke, the more likely you are to be a loser, finds international study

Persistent users likely to be lower paid and have relationship difficulties

Research found abusers ended up in a lower social class than their parents

Also more prone to be in less skilled, prestigious jobs and to run into debt

Study by Californian university followed children from birth up to age of 38

By Alexander Robertson For Mailonline

2 April 2016

International research has revealed that the more cannabis you smoke, the more likely you are to be lower paid and have relationship difficulties.

The study followed children from birth up to the age of 38 and found people who smoked cannabis four or more days a week over many years ended up in a lower social class than their parents.

It also found that regular and persistent users ended up with lower-paying, less skilled and less prestigious jobs than those who were not regular cannabis smokers.

Financial, work-related and relationship difficulties were further experienced by those taking the drug, which worsened as the number of years of regular cannabis use progressed.

The study, conducted by a team of researchers led by Magdalena Cerda at the University of California and Avshalom Caspi and Terrie Moffitt at Duke University, appeared in the journal Clinical Psychological Science.

'Our research does not support arguments for or against cannabis legalization,' said Cerda. 'But it does show that cannabis was not safe for the long-term users tracked in our study.

'Our study found that regular cannabis users experienced downward social mobility and more financial problems such as troubles with debt and cash flow than those who did not report such persistent use.

'Regular long-term users also had more antisocial behaviors at work, such as stealing money or lying to get a job, and experienced more relationship problems, such as intimate partner violence and controlling abuse.'

Researchers claimed the study was important as it addresses an array of 'potentially confounding factors' not included in past studies assessing cannabis' long-term effects on users.

Economic and social problems persisted in long-term, regular users of pot even after the authors accounted for other potential differences between regular cannabis users and other participants.

These factors included socioeconomic problems in childhood, lower IQ, antisocial behavior and depression in adolescence, higher levels of impulsivity, lower motivation to achieve, criminal conviction of cannabis users, and abuse of alcohol and hard drugs.

'These findings did not arise because cannabis users were prosecuted and had a criminal record,' said Caspi, a psychologist at Duke University and King's College London.

'Even among cannabis users who were never convicted for a cannabis offense, we found that persistent and regular cannabis use was linked to economic and social problems.'

While both heavy alcohol and cannabis use were similarly associated with declines, the authors found that those dependent on cannabis experienced more financial difficulties.

'Cannabis may be safer than alcohol for your health, but not for your finances,' said Moffitt.

For the study, 947 participants who had completed at least three of the five adult cannabis assessments from ages 18 through 38.

Eighteen percent, or 173 participants, were considered marijuana dependent in at least one wave of the study, and 15 per cent fell into the regular cannabis use categories.

Ban them all! Holier living through government.

A government strong enough to impose your standards is strong enough to ban them.

This observation is not true. Marijuana is more potent than ever with government sanctions. Moreover, medical marijuana may be purchased with 0bamaKare credits.

It doesn't get better than this!

From the research paper: ""the findings are particular to a cohort of individuals born in Dunedin, New Zealand, in the 1970s and may not generalize to groups exposed to different social norms regarding cannabis use [...] we do not purport to report a causal relationship between cannabis dependence and economic/social problems; cannabis dependence could be a marker of a life trajectory characterized by social and economic adversity".

LMAO. It's the same old sh*t from these eggheads. It hasn't changed a bit in over 50 years at least. I remember reading a passage in my wife's undergraduate senor psychology course textbook. In effect it said "Studies show that people that watch TV 4 or more hours a day tend to overestimate the dangers around them. OTOH it may be that those who overestimate to dangers around tend to watch TV more than 4 hours a day." I don't recall if that factoid was on the final.

That was almost four generation of students ago and these frauds are still making money at their game, probably more so now than ever before.

Those Dunedinians really should avoid smokin' da ganja. They just can't handle it.

Eighteen percent, or 173 participants, were considered marijuana dependent in at least one wave of the study, and 15 per cent fell into the regular cannabis use categories.

So this is all predicated on 25 regular cannabis users from Dunedin, NZ. And that constitutes an "international" study?

This is a joke.

Everything hinted at in this study has been known for 50 years. Now comes the second step. Every pothead loser will band together with other pothead losers to shriek complaints of persecution, denial, while showing re-runs of that old goverment produced anti-drug film from the '30s.

Here's a news flash robert - "Reefer Madness" is NOT a documentary.

U.S. drug policy (and your mindset) is STILL based on that propaganda film.

The only shrieking is that of the prohibitionists (like this Daily Mail distortion) as their big-government boondoggle collapses under the accumulated weight of experience.

I think I need cannabis (in moderate amounts) only for my bad nerves. I mean BAD. I get stingy, itchy, and get muscle spasms and one time I kick my feet on the wall during my sleep. and I'm not even 20 yet.
