[Ancient Citizen]

Recreational sales are permitted and taxed, the first month bringing in a tidy sum for State coffers.
Well, stone me.

Just read on the net Pige, but computer savvy I'm not.
Sure some kind soul will oblige.

A relatively interesting 2 part documentary on this issue. Amazing the contrast between Colorado and Lousiana, 13 years for a few grams! Crazy.

This CBD Oil is non-THC (you don't get stoned) and has been proven to benefit Children who have been having severe Epileptic Seizures.
One child going from having hundreds of seizures to cutting the amount %99

it makes common sense to decriminalise this plant for the health benefits associated with it.
I doubt it will happen though as Pharmaceutical companies will just lobby against it as many of their drugs won't be needed.

The medical benefits of Marijuana have been known for decades, as you say though,the Pharmaceutical companies are dead against it. Money, as always, before what is best for the people. :(
