You drive under the influence? You don't consider that irresponsible?

Your testimony joins a lot of anecdotal evidence for the benefits of medicinal THC. I don't oppose marijuana for medical use, but I think that ballot initiative is the wrong way to go about it. We have a process for creating new drugs, and if our federal government would get off their fat dead asses and move it to the proper schedule so that drug companies could do actual clinical studies, maybe we could get something done, and determine a reliable dose and dosing mechanism.

If anyone is interested, the ballot proposition and for/against arguments can be found here.

Interesting that most of the against arguments come from addiction counselors.
