Honestly, the government's policies toward Marijuana in general are foolish. Why should a drug be considered Schedule I, raided, cracked down on as much as it is, especially if there are implementations of medical benefits? Also, has anyone ever overdosed on smoking?
Compare it to alcohol, you can get alcohol poisoning, make stupid a!@ decisions, etc. All I know is that consuming marijuana makes you happy, healthy, and hungry.
The government is wasting money, prison space, opportunity to make profits, and so on. The benefits outweigh the risks tremendously. Isn't that how the FDA decides whether to pass a future drug? Efficacy and efficiency? Making sure benefits outweigh risks.
I think republicans and democrats need to go to their little congress/senate meetings, smoke a little, then discuss policies. More would get done. Them and Kim Jong Un, he needs to calm down.
