It is interesting that even as the body of proof grows linking mj use to later schizophrenia, government is relaxing the laws concerning its use.

If I was a conspiracy guy, I'd say big pharma is behind legalization. Politicians get the taxes and every new schizophrenia case is a life long customer.

I think so too. All about the money.

And Big Tobacco. They have exactly what is needed to market and distribute MJ/THC products. States want the tax revenue to replace declining tobacco revenue too.

What “body of proof”? It’s against federal law to do research on cannabis in America.

Big pharma opposes legalization because they cannot profit from a plant that grows on the side of the road.

Barring genetic modification, a plant cannot be copyrighted.

This is the first I have heard of this. Thank you. It explains what happened to my brother who has been toking since he was 16. He had a psychotic break that no one could understand.
