How many pot smokers are in the US?

Answer:


Anyhow, researchers found that 42% of people surveyed in the U.S. had tried marijuana at least once, and 16% had tried cocaine. If you figure that by the population, that means that roughly 140,000,000 people in the US have TRIED pot. I haven't found a reliable number of how many people currently and regularly smoke weed in the US, however, I have found numbers ranging from 14 million to about 40 million. So I'd guess it's somewhere in there. I'd say it's a safe bet to be on the high side (no pun intended) as I personally know several people who would never admit it to a poll for fear of 'big brother' coming to get them. lol

Paranoia goes with the smoking thing, too.
