Every country in the world think that cannabis is a big problem, even here in the Faroe Island we have a lot of trouble with it. But there are some countries that try to bend the rules so they can make some kind of profit from the cannabis. For example there is a part of the text that says that in California they charge about 99 US dollars so that you can get a doctors license to smoke marijuana. Other countries try to make the sentence for possession disappear altogether, while other countries, like Denmark, try to make the sentences longer.
