Well now we know why the pharmaceutical industry fights medical marijuana so hard. It’s bad for profits, never mind that it reduces the misery of opioid addiction, because hey, who cares about people?

Do the infants roll it or put it in a bong to smoke it?

hey, who cares about people? You'll find some pretty callous self righteous people here if you look around.

I met many, many people over the years who were able to eliminate or reduce their doses of opiods thanks to medical cannabis. While under doctor’s supervision and one being a doctor himself.
Thanks to legalization, they can grow their own free meds right in their garden and perfectly dose them with a medical grade vaporizer as needed. No smoke, no chance of overdose or toxic damage. The opioid industry is absolutely terrified!

Yes, if you die of pot first.
To: Ken H
There are many herbs with medicinal properties. Is that shocking? You dont need to get high to use the cannabis herb.

Havent heard from RAND in years. Didnt know they were still in the business of providing wanted results on demand.
To: Ken H
It's been about twenty years now but I remember when it was all over the media how training doctors to more freely prescribe opioid painkillers was going to reduce heroin usage.
Given the huge reduction in the number of heroin users I guess we have proof that whatever the media focuses on is what the medical community should go along with, huh?
