Bill Gates

Many bright-eyed geeks research for what makes Microsoft founder Bill Gates successful. While Gates is a supporter of legalization in his own state of Washington, Gates stays quiet about his personal use. And he did publicly back the 2012 referendum to legalize cannabis in Washington.

“As for drugs – well, Gates was certainly not unusual there. Marijuana was the pharmaceutical of choice.” Stepen Manes wrote on Bill Gates.

Ben & Jerry

Milk and cookies. Peanut butter and jelly. Weed and a pint o’ ice cream. Yeah, Ben & Jerry basically had to invest in marijuana. These two are some high profile people who like to get high. And help others do so. These national business owners have combined their love for dairy delights with activism. Though mostly focused on environmental politics, marijuana advocacy is just as important.

While this cannabis-cream combo is not yet available, proponents of pot Ben & Jerry wish to eventually launch in states where it is legal.

Roseanne Barr

Recently the world has experienced a 90’s resurgence, and Roseanne Barr has made a television comeback. And this advocate and user is very open about her opinions. She uses cannabis for her own case of glaucoma. In addition, she suffers from macular degeneration causing the actress to gradually lose her eyesight. In fact, there were plans to open up her own dispensary called Roseanne’s Joint in Santa Ana, CA, which never ended up happening.
