Addition: I firmly believe this herb has FAR more uses then just pain management as OUR amendment directs. My family has a strong history of alcoholism, addictive drug use, depression and others. I can honestly say THIS one herb has solved every one of those issues that I've experienced. Thus keeping my hard earned dollers out of big Pharma and in the hands of local buisness, Keeping me out of bars, AND ending all desires to buy into the anti-depressant industry. Personally I have severe lower back pain and THAT is what my license was issued for(pinched nerve). So, I believe that allowing a person to get a license who doesn't have any pain, better then forcing someone who DOES to jump through a bunsh of hoops and government red tape to get the meds they need. You never know, maybe that pain free patient has a better purpose for his meds. Like staying out of bars or staying off ridalin.
