Yeah man,
don't worry, change is definitely coming. I'm working in my own country as well to change things by contacting various governmental bodies with scientific information and challenging their dossiers and articles. Even though it is decriminalized here (as in you are allowed to have 3 grams on you, but production and sale is illegal), only about 10 terminally ill people in the whole country are allowed to get medical marijuana on prescription, so the rest has to get it on the street or in the coffeeshops of our neighbour Holland. It's criminal to let ill people suffer like that...
