Good post, Posted by Ryan this sounds like an interesting article. I agree with Ryan's blog it gives us detailed info and conclusion about the legalization, regulation, and taxation of marijuana. Several controlled clinical trials have been carried out in the last few years, using either smoked marijuana or a mouth spray that contains an extract of the marijuana plant. The results are quite consistent. They show that marijuana improves the well-being of patients with multiple sclerosis and alleviates chronic pain in patients with damage or dysfunction of nerve fibers (so-called neuropathic pain). Other work has shown that marijuana and its active ingredient THC (delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol) reduce the nausea that accompanies chemotherapy, stimulate appetite in AIDS wasting syndrome and lessen tics in Tourette’s syndrome.
I am not advocating that anyone should or shouldn't use marijuana. I am however saying that anyone using it in a responsible way should not be punished for it. If regulated like alcohol is, marijuana would offer revenue for federal, state and local projects and communities. It's Time for a change! I demand the decriminalization, legalization, regulation and taxation of marijuana, and I expect our lawmakers to heed this call.
