Since California voters legalized cannabis through a 2016 ballot initiative, it has evolved into something like a normal business. It’s complete with webcasts on how to operate efficiently, disputes over where to place stores and gripes about black marketeers siphoning off too much of the multibillion-dollar take.Now the state Assembly has decided the marijuana trade, with retail outlets in almost every corner of the state, is not yet big enough.

The ill effects of cannabis use have been well known for generations: spaced-out behavior, impaired judgment, clouded or heightened senses depending on your personal biology, a distorted sense of time, slower reactions, lower motor skills, reduced inhibitions, less mental focus and memory. On the positive side, there’s pain reduction and better tolerance for some prescription medications and their side-effects, especially among anti-cancer drugs.

In short, if you want to avoid dementia as you age, forget marijuana. Now there’s even more bad news for frequent cannabis users, also tied to advancing age. That’s what you’d risk by going to a newly-legalized pot lounge if they were authorized in California, as the majority of legislators appears to want. That leads to a logical question: What are those so-called state leaders on?
