Its never ever been about what you claim..
Since before Nixon.. Its been about Government Power to control the masses..
From Nixon to Reagan's hate for those who opposed them..
Those Hippies and Hoodlums out in their Faces Protesting the Administrations every self serving move... Nixon hedged the Governments position on Pot.. To the Point that this can only be changed with a act of Congress.. Scheduled the Plant by the DEA as a Schedule 1 drug.. The DEA was appointed by Nixon to develop Marinol as a substitute for Medical use only...Government Regulated and available today..
So the Plant is illegal but the Drug the DEA has extracted is not..
Then to claim the Plant has no Medial uses to this day also..
