Berkeley to approve medical marijuana for low-income residents
It's official. Washington is now the second state where people can legally buy recreational marijuana. The demand is expected to be huge as business starts.
One reason: as of now, there are only 24 stores in a state of nearly 7 million people. And only one in the city of Seattle. But while Washington looks to cautiously bring pot to the masses, one California city - where marijuana is only available for medicinal use - is looking to give pot to the poor.
The Berkeley city council is expected to officially approve that plan Tuesday night.
Are they going too far?
