Who is gonna grow it? Who is gonna track it? Who is gonna process it? Who is gonna sell it? Who is gonna set quality and manufacturing standards? What paperwork must be completed for each plant grown and how can we assure the public that plants are not diverted to illegal uses?
Big government is the only answer! But then what are you gonna do when big government says no to your particular drug of choice???
Wait, isn't that exactly what is happing here?
The problem isn't with the courts...Its with the politicians and the FDA regulators. If pot has such wonderous potential as a miricle cure, then why isn't the FDA pushing it? (Pardon the pun) Where is the S.G. that should be demanding this for the collective "health" of the nation?
We created the beastly government. No how do we get control of it?
I know...Put the beast in control of ALL medicine like in Canada! That will fix everything, NOT. But then I'm getting off topic.
