At first I thought you said "abortion" haha...

But yeah, this is a great idea... Depsite the dispensary raids, which will hopefully be under full control soon, the past 8 years we have seen pretty big milestones towards cannabis decriminalization. Look at the recent threads for the vending machines despite the raids. That's probably going to leak into the pharmaceutical field as well.

There's been a dramatic increase in cannabis-related medical and social studies; protection of the myelin sheath, protection against gliomal cell cancer, reduced risk of athereosclerosis, Alzheimers, lung cancer, pain managment, help with depression... Shit, just ask Granny Storm Crow, and she'll give Wikipedia a run for their money :thumbsup:

Hopefully with a new presidency, we'll see some more spotlight shone on medical mj (and hopefully my state will soon join the 11; right now it's a 100 dollar fine and a misdemeanor with a doctor's recommendation)

Maybe they'll legalize the mass production of hemp, at the very least. I'm not saying hemp is going to save us, nor lift of economic state up, but it certainly wouldn't hurt.
