Why, in your own words, is weed illegal?

I personally think its fear of a generation of people thinking for themselves, and thinking in general. What are your thoughts?

Because its to easy to manufacture, and there's the possibility that big business/government couldn't achieve maximum profit.

Harry J. Anslinger
is the definite reason why weed is illegal. He's the guy behind all of the original myths portraying cannabis as a dangerous drug.
The reason why it's still illegal (in my own words) at least in the U.S. Is because Americans for the longest time have let the government influence and educate them on the topic of cannabis, unfortunately. Everyone believed the BS and now finally after decades of ridiculousness. Laws are starting to change.

Its not even all of that. Its because tobacco, alcohol and pharmaceutical companies stand to lose way too much money.
That, and maybe the government is too worried about its peoples minds being free

Why should that mean it isn't real?

you know what i did in english class? I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

Actually, that was part of the reason Hearst started his anti marijuana shit. That's where the word marijuana comes from, the Mexican independence song la cucaraca. That's why we have two spellings of the word, Hearst was too stupid to translate it.
