Is Marijuana a Medicine?
The federal government pretends that cigarette smoking does NOT cause cancer (because they tax it heavily). The federal government pretends that abusers of alcohol do NOT get addicted (because they tax it heavily). The federal government pretends that marijuana is a dangerous drug (because they don't make any money off it).
The government claims their proof of their asinine conclusion that marijuana is dangerous is that no one has ever done a study to prove otherwise. The government has tried to make it illegal for anyone to prove otherwise. Thus keeping their conclusion uncontested.
If you happen to ask yourself why the government keeps marijuana illegal, I can think of a number of reasons.
It could be because the government likes to see people suffer.
It could be because if marijuana were legal, the people could grow their own, and the government would be unable to tax it.
It could be because the government is abusive of peoples rights and freedoms and this gives them yet another excuse for yet another agency with paramilitary weapons and excessive powers to confiscate property and arrest anyone they want to. Guilty until proven innocent.
