Dec 2013

In 2012, 5.4 million persons aged 12 or older used marijuana on a daily or almost daily basis in the past 12 months (i.e., on 300 or more days in that period), which was an increase from the 3.1 million daily or almost daily marijuana users in 2006 (Figure 2.15). The number of daily or almost daily users of marijuana in 2012 represented 17.0 percent of past year users.

That might be half of California's number... certainly not the nations..... 5 million pot smokers? that's ridiculous.
