If the answers to these questions are indeed 'yes,' I'd assume the pharmaceutical companies would be salivating about developing a new, and it would seem very marketable (!), arrow for their quiver?

Ahhh... ya see, there you'd be wrong.

Given that THC is a natural occuring compound, it is not patentable.

Much better for the bottom line ($$$) for the pharmas to push strong, physically addictive manmade painkillers.

Yes, that's a quite plausible answer re the drug companies. But, what about the actual drug itself? Does it work?
