Cannabis should be REMOVED from scheduling altogether. Alcohol and tobacco are worse and not scheduled as you mentioned. A good portion of the controlled substance act is medically incorrect.
Money and corruption is why, and "we the people" need to advocate harder.
Absolutely, Could fall under a different agency for oversight - like ATF for alcohol and tobacco. I doubt the feds will not figure out some way to insure they get their taxes.
I don't use and I think it's nuts on any schedule.
