Marinol, synthetically derived THC, is an approved medicine for nausea because it has been shown to be effective. The only problem is that it is in a pill. One cancer sufferer said that putting an anti-nausia drug in the form of a pill is like giving an anti-dihareaha drug in a suppository!
The article mentions pain; but ignores nausea. Most actual medicinal users need if for nausea, not pain. Beating up a straw man argument doesn't prove anything except the writers unwillingness to be intellectually honest.

Also make note that the number of people in rehab for marijuana were given the option of jail or rehab and they chose rehab. This is not a fair way to evaluate the dangers of marijuana. Well...it's 4:20 got to go...lol
