There is a widespread misperception that most of the people who are using marijuana for so-called medical purposes are either seriously or terminally ill," said Gordon Taylor, assistant special agent in charge of the federal Drug Enforcement Administration in Sacramento. 'It's becoming abundantly clear to us at the DEA that many of the people using marijuana under the cover of state marijuana laws are doing so simply to justify their chronic use of marijuana and their desire to get high."

This is from people trying to explain where $50 billion of taxpayer dollars which somehow achieves zero net result has gone. Never mind the testimony of actual patients, right?

I'll believe a businessman over a government agency whose daily operations constitute a gross offense to the Constitution and the very idea of law, any day.
