Hi Mad1010,

I completely agree. I have no problems paying some for my meds... that is only fair. But I wanna know the money I spend helps others like me. I also don't need to be paying 50% of my income to stay barely comfortable. I'd like to be able to pay a reasonable precentage of my income and have all the medicine my body requires. I know that may seem a little unrealistic, but a girl in pain can dream. lol

Here in Colorado it is the wild wild west right now. If I happen to have to go somewhere other than my primary caregiver, my $$$ will probably end up in a growing bank account of some green gold rush eyed caregiver who could really care less if I have effective meds or not.

Also in the non-profit model there is room for patients to preform services for compensation in medicine. The Patient works at the dispensary/caregivers location according to the patients abilities and the dispensary/caregivers needs. My caregiver is for profit (there seem to be no NONprofit dispensaries near me), but regularly trades my services in clerical/computer work either from home or in his office for meds when I am strapped for cash.

Why have I heard nothing in this new health care plan about medical marijuana? The government is saving a ton of money due to the growth in the medical marijuana industry, but no one is talking about it in a real way. I have decided that I may have a unique perspective on this issue and have decided to throw my two cents in on the topic.
