Bottom line is that it is overwhelmingly more profitable for gov. the way it is.I think we may very well see this movement go nationwide state-wise. Federally, don't think we will ever see it,not in our lifetime if ever.The way I think they are look'n at this state by state thing is that they can double down on their absolute power to punish and enslave. I know me personally would absolutely never pop my head up when it eventually hit's my state for the medicinal thing. I feel pretty confident that there is a file for each and every one of these people getting their card and for growers"caregiver's to make it nice and convienient to round up whoever ,whenever they see fit. Parralell's with the conceal-carry racket,if they ever get their way to dis-arm society that will make it much easier as a starting point. I'm not registered conceal-carry,but I leave my house every day with my sidearm on my hip in plain view,and it's my right to do so without their permission. I am also really not in need of their permission to smoke a joint at the end of my day to relax,just as hypocritical alchohol suporters choose to swill in their choice of whatever.I would drop my argument altogether,make that processed poison illeagal and classify it as a schedule 1 drug and i'll shut up.I'm no scholar but i'm pretty certain that there is no medical benefit to that poison that they glorify. anyway's sorry for go'n off topic and ranting! lol.... just one peasant's humble belief
