First off you would have to prove to me what you said is true.
Second of all, if marijuana had so much medicinal value why aren't pharmaceutical companies developing it for all these so called "alternative" medicines?
Third of all, I never met someone that promotes medical marijuana that just so happens to smoke it.
First off, your last three posts are completely full of innuendos and inaccuracies. There are multiple pharmaceutical companies with drugs in the pipeline using cannabis or a form of synthesized cannabis for various medicinal treatments. I have had stock holdings in at least one of them just as an FYI. Second, the reason why big pharma doesn't want to see cannabis as an alternative medical treatment is because they can't own the IP. This is a duh for anyone who is up to speed on the biotech world. Third, just because a drug has to go through a rigorous process to demonstrate both efficacy and safety to get FDA approved doesn't mean it is a great or even good treatment. Nor does it mean that it can't be abused. Oxycontin is a PERFECT example.
