Clarence Thomas wrote "It is clear from the text of the Act that Congress has made a determination that marijuana has no medical benefits worthy of an exception." Thus cannabis is not medicine because Congress SAYS SO!

Look again. He did not say that. He said the "text of the Act" written by congressional comittee. So politicians made medical law without formal research performed by qualified scientists. The research is now being done and it appears they were wrong. How many people have suffered to appease politicians?
