I work with drug companies on a daily basis. I manage cancer research studies, so i see all of the above symptoms at levels you couldn't comprehend unless you were in the field i am. If there is one person here jumping the bandwagon that your philosophy provides, it is you. You my friend are ill-informed and naieve. If i thought you would hear what i had to say, i'd actually waste my time and explain myself further.

You do of course realize that marijuana is one of the only drugs effective against the side effects of chemotherapy. If you're unwilling or unable to continue debate I take that as a consession of defeat.
Honestly, how could you not see the the legalization of marijuana as being a revolutionary move with dire consequences for much of the pharmaceutical industry?
Take insomnia for example: prescription medication ambien costs about $5 per pill, with everyday use that's about $1825 per year. Growing a year's worth of marijuana for everyday use would cost about $50 for fertilizer, seed, etc. Marijuana might not be right for everyone, but an extra $1775 per year in you pocket can be mighty tempting.
If posting here and entering into the discussion is such a waste of your time, then please do not bother.
