With the push for decriminalization in many states going forward, states giving the nod to medical marijuana, we see a chink in the armor of the police state. While not by any means an endorsement of cannabis use, conditional use, such as medical applications, represent a new, more enlightened attitude towards the hemp. Hemp, as we know, has many uses beyond getting high: plastics and fabrics, to name a few. Many of you are aware that Henry Ford built a car from Hemp (Popular Science, c.a.1941) Dow Chemical saw the threat of hemp to their established regime of creating plastics from non-hydrocarbons and fought to keep hemp illegal. Monsanto saw a renewable source for softer and stronger fibers from hemp and did everything in their power to prevent it from coming to market.
We have a product in hemp that is good for the soul and has industrial applications these and other corporations want to keep from us.
Given that there exist initiatives in several states to decriminalize marijuana, the advent of medical marijuana (I was a cancer patient, late stage 4. My Oncologist told me that, while he couldn't prescribe medical marijuana to me for pain and nausea, my best chance to mitigate those symptoms was to seek out cannabis and use it as needed). I credit marijuana with saving my life.
The simple fact that medical marijuana is not an option for many patients the country wide dooms many to a hellish experience with a fatal disease.
If any of you have similar experiences with cancer and marijuana treatment, I would welcome your comments.
