all of your heros are for medical corporate marijuana with a dr prescription.

Let me make it clear that I do not have any problems with the “pharmaceuticalization” of cannabis.
I have long had serious concerns about GW Pharmaceuticals, not because they are trying to “pharmaceuticalize” cannabis (Hooray for that, if they can), but rather because they seem to have had marijuana prohibition built into their business model.
They even employed a former staffer from the Drug Czar’s office to lobby against state medical marijuana laws.
Edward "Ed" Rosenthal (born Bronx, New York, 1944) is a California horticulturist, author, publisher, and Cannabis grower known for his advocacy for the legalization of marijuana use. He served as a columnist for High Times Magazine during the 1980s and 1990s
***** "He worked with the state and local governments to implement the delivery of pharmaceutical-grade cannabis to patients with a doctor's recommendation to use marijuana."
During the Ronald Reagan presidency he served as an adviser for the federal government's pot farm, part of the Marijuana Research Project at the University of Mississippi

“The whole reason we told people to grow their own pot was to get rid of the criminal element … '
Todd McCormick:
"I'm trying to remove the criminal element,"
Adam Dunn:
“Home growers are cutting into [corporate] profits, and that's bullshit right there because the most important part is that people have access to medicine,” Dunn said. “Clearly, you know, they're going to completely fuck themselves over by the thinking that they're going to be doing something.
Nevil Schoenmakers:
I would advocate
production by licensed growers who in effect can only grow for… “a state sponsored
governing body, which in turn deals with the distribution of the product.”
This will have the effect of breaking the link between the grower and that patient, thereby
ensuring a transparent system. INQUIRY INTO USE OF CANNABIS FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES

Nadelmann -a drug-policy-reform advocate funded by George Soros and several other billionaires- offered to hire a commercial signature gatherer on the condition that Dennis be replaced as campaign manager by a “professional” from Santa Monica.
The initiative was already ahead in the polls and the professional’s only discernible effect.
Many activists shook their heads disapprovingly when Dennis generalized,
“All marijuana use is medical.”

The nonprofit norml and the drug policy institute etc. along with high times got everyone to grow indoors which is way more efficient way to regulate and control production... than having helicopters flying around, see?
High times got everyone to order seeds and equipment the whole idea of President Bush Administration was to identify the users and producers “the demand” in the black market. And for big company s to exploit... "monopolize"...
it’s not the end of prohibition it’s a more specialized efficient and productive prohibition.
It’s becoming quite apparent that nonprofits are used by government and corporations to be the political middleman in a economic process. Nonprofits lead people away from discovering while hiding economic transformation of the market...it is a clever manipulation of and subversion of our political process for economic gains... no different from the cannabis industry.
It looks like dope but its really hope” explains David Watson.
Nevil schoenmakers: “What he means is that many of these plants have been specifically bred not to produce an intoxicating resin or hashish.

Indeed, Hortipharm hopes to thwart the aims of the average recreational user”
The team is already close to finding their own commercial holy grail-seeds that will produce a one off, female, seedless crop of plants with no psychotropic effect for the consumer.
Why you might ask would they want to do that?
Hortipharm is only interested in developing female only plants that are sterile, but this is not to protect their genetic copyright.
“If a plant is not busy producing seeds, all its energy can go into resin production” says Watson Dutch colleague and biochemist Etienne Meyers.
Watson believes in the bright future of (cannabis) is contained in the greenhouses of Hortipharm and GW Pharmaceuticals.
Nevil Schoenmakers: "The object is to patent up every possible combination of cannabinoids with efficacy for every possible disease they can treat, and every possible genetic sequence! Once ready to make the move. They will shut down every medical cannabis grower for patent fraud."
Here is hortipharm are collecting and sending
