By your logic, they ought to restore Phen-fen to the market as well.

Could you expand on your thoughts a little?

In this case, I mean that FDA approval and "control" of a substance doesn't mean diddly.

My doctor just changed a medication I'm taking, because "new data" indicate a small chance of liver damage. Stuff is taken off the market all the time, even after having been "approved" for prescribed use.

There is no benefit of pot that can't be derived from far safer controlled substances, and the downside is huge.

This whole argument of "medical marijuana" is just a farce.
