Marijuana is prescribed because it has medically beneficial properties.

Yes, sure, it has about 2 properties that are beneficial and not easily replicated by other drugs.

Medicine is not one size fits all. The more different medications are available for any given condition, the better.

However, the vast majority of “medical marijuana” users don’t have medical issues that require those unique properties, they just want to get high.

Why should that worry me? Anyone who wants can get a legal nonprescription buzz on at their nearest tavern.

I didn’t say it should worry you. The comment wasn’t addressed to you

Actually, it was - see post#97.

and I don’t think you are following the conversation.

So what's your point in claiming that 'the vast majority of “medical marijuana” users [...] just want to get high'? What would you have us conclude from that?

Ok, I got that confused with my previous post you jumped on which was making pretty much the same point, which was not addressed to you.

“So what’s your point in claiming that ‘the vast majority of “medical marijuana” users [...] just want to get high’? What would you have us conclude from that?”

That the medical qualities of marijuana are irrelevant to the argument I was making with Tenacious 1.
