it sounds so rediculous, that i am wondering if in fact they ARE
actually referring to the big legal drug companys. no-one could
possibly accuse the weed smoking community of being "wealthy business".
You know what, i'm not sure these guys are all that demonic really in
this. it truly sounds like they are keen on questioning the validitiy
of relaxing the medical cannabis laws.
although yes, it does seem they are confident that the medical community
will vote against medical use. for some reason. i hope they don't have
some hidden card here, because from all i've seen the medical community
is keen on allowing it's use in medicine. politically, something is not
adding up here.
If it were anyone else calling for this, i'd be cheering. But
considering the rather unlikely source warrenting this action, it pays
to be wary.
