 In some states, the use of marijuana is now legal, so a majority of the citizens evidently regard it as morally acceptable. In other states, however, the use of marijuana is illegal, so a majority of the citizens in those states evidently regard it as morally unacceptable. Furthermore, given that most states at this time disapprove marijuana use, a majority of citizens in the country as a whole likely regard it as morally unacceptable. The dilemma for those who say that moral questions are decided by the majority is that in this case, there are a number of majorities, and they disagree with one another.Make a decision regarding this dilemma based on what you learned in this chapter.
