Yea, money is the reason it's not legal...as long as Drug Co. lobbyists are giving (gifting?) OUR representatives millions of dollars to keep it illegal, it will stay that way, too. If we are all healthy on our own homegrown stuff, they won't be making $20 a pill for pain relief, irritable bowel syndrome or hard-on pills ...self-preservation of the drug companies will not let them be in favor of decriminalizing it, or legalizing it, medically or otherwise. Any pot smokers on here have the resources of a major drug co. to throw at our reps?????...if so, start paying them corrupt reps for us, pleeeease!
