Research Question and Controlling Purpose

I finally chose a specific research question that I feel confident in. In assignment 6 I stated my research question as " In this essay I will be examining if legalizing medical marijuana in the United States would be justified and what effects it would bring upon today’s society." It is pretty self explanatory. From my previous post, it is obvious that I am in favor of the legalization of marijuana. I am using this research question to imply my controlling purpose of why medical marijuana should be legalized. I feel as though my research question and controlling purpose are working well together. By finding information about the positive effects that marijuana has on medical patients, I am able to support my opinion without actually stating it (academic inquiry). I think I finally have a good thing going here. :)
