Yes I know DCs cannot prescribe drugs that has nothing to do with it. There are many "other health care providers" that cannot prescribe. If you still admittedly believe this then please quote it from the compassionate act.

With your reasoning if a prescription was necessary we in Az have already passed MMJ twice unfortuantely the wording was a doctor had to prescribe MMJ.

That is what stopped it from taking affect the last time as the DEA is the licensing body that gives doctors the right to prescribe. The DEA stated immediately that if you prescribe a schedule 1 substance and you will lose your license.
