    What is the worst thing about marijuana.?

    To me by far the worst thing, is cannabis/marijuana is illegal and worldwide except in one Country- Uruguay. This war on drugs has been losing since 1936 except for Cartels, lawyers and prison's.

    In moderation cannabis/marijuana is a herb and helpful like organic wine. Cannabis/hemp is the most useful and productive plant in the world.

    Why is everything so backward?
    Your thoughts.

    I fully agree with you. I guess another bad thing is all the opposition still going on by people opposed to the legalization in the U.S. I'm wondering how the U.S. federal law is going to play out what with all the states that are legalizing either medical marijuana or recreational marijuana, or both. My state legalized medical marijuana in a regular legislative session in 2017, but then the trouble began when the rules were put into effect to designate growers, middlemen and sellers. Five applicants were assigned as growers, and then a judge with an already freaky reputation issued an order nulling the assignments. The commission is going to have to start all over with scoring the assignments again.

    So the God-boxers and Bible thumpers are doing everything they can to impede state law. I say "freaky reputation" because this judge has already drawn criticism for actively demonstrating publicly on another bone of contention of his, the death penalty. A judge of his caliber is not supposed to be politicly nor personally motivated but issue decisions based on the law.

    Another bad thing about marijuana is that it is indeed an herb, and I'm allergic to herbs. Therefore, I can't use it for pain. I have CRPS (complex regional pain syndrome), which is a fancy way of saying localized fibromyalgia. My pain is in my upper back, shoulders and arms only. Marijuana is classified as a schedule I drug, and so is a very dangerous synthetic drug, Lyrica. I took Lyrica for pain for about 4 years, but the side effects became so severe that I had to stop taking it. I wish I could use marijuana because it is effective on my pain, and I don't think marijuana is nearly as dangerous as Lyrica.  Marijuana oil doesn't make me woozy like Lyrica did, but it breaks me out like poison ivy or any herb.

    I'm all for letting folks who benefit from this Schedule I herb use it. Another problem is that it will be subject to sales tax in my state if they ever get the problems ironed out, and it should not be taxed because other prescription drugs are not subject to the sales tax. I didn't pay a sales tax on Lyrica, so what's the difference? You know what, I don't think there's a problem with marijuana, I think it's the people who oppose it.

    Pot is not for everyone.

    Marijuana is less addictive than coffee.
    Saying pot it is a gateway drug. Is like saying milk is a gateway to alcohol.

    Scheduleing marijuana to one, meaning no benefits or use and it is a top harmful drug. Is the biggest scam since the lightbulb conspiracy.

    Cannabis is the most productive plant on earth. Worst thing about pot after being illegal is it lowers your ambitions if used too much because it is a relaxer.

    Since bad stress will be the greatest rise in our growing sickco world, a relaxer will be what the doctors will prescribe.
