New draft bill will essentially kill off caregivers in Colorado

Under "Definitions" it say's this.

THE ACT OF SUPPLYING MEDICAL MARIJUANA OR MARIJUANA PARAPHERNALIA, BY ITSELF, IS INSUFFICIENT TO CONSTITUTE â??SIGNIFICANT 21
RESPONSIBILITY FOR MANAGING THE WELL-BEING OF A PATIENT. (C.R.S. § 25-1.5-106 22
3(b) (1)) 23

Then later it say's this too.

IF PATIENTS DO NOT REQUIRE CARE-GIVER SERVICE OTHER THAN THE PROVISION OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA, THEN THE PATIENTS SHALL NOT 22
DESIGNATE A PRIMARY CARE-GIVER. 23

Those 2 lines bother me. That FORCES able bodied patients to go to MMC's and pay out the nose, and if they don't have the funds, they don't get the meds.
