admin Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 I just found out how easy it is to get a prescription for medical marijuana in California. I think my glaucoma is acting up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolbreez Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 Feds: Pot has no medical purpose -MSNBCMarijuana will remain in the same class of drugs as heroin. Why doesn't this conclusion surprise me? Considering that you can get marijuana in every single city, and town, no matter how big, or small, in the USA, there has to be a huge distribution system in place, and for a considerably long time. For that to exist for so long, and the huge amounts of money involved, you would come to the conclusion of government involvement again. There has always been a need for huge amounts of untracable money by certain government agencies. In the early 80's it was money to finance the Contra revolution in Nicaragua, funded with a CIA sponsored cocaine smuggling operation that became public when they attempted to kill the pilot, but failed the first time, and he went to the press. He did get killed on the second attempt. No one knows how much other illegal money, and drugs were, and are still being distributed by the CIA, it's agencies, and contractors. Anytime there is a need for covert operations in some foreign country, but they don't want to go to the Congress to get funding, and make their actions public, they use covert money, untracable. Think about how much money is spent on Marijuana daily in every single place people live in the USA, and how much money is needed to finance covert operations, and you start to see why certain government agencies do not want to see Marijuana legalized, even in a medical setting. You take away their billions, and people die, and have in the past. With the AMA (American Medical Association) endorsing the medical use of Marijuana, you wonder how those in the DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency), the agency that gives doctors their license to prescribe drugs, yes they aren't just in the business of stopping illegal drug use, they also license the legal use of drugs, can be so anal in their one sided beliefs, no matter what evidence is put in front of them, and no matter how insistant local governments are, they still refuse to make Marijuana medically available. President Obama made a huge step in the right direction when he put in place an executive order instructing the DEA to not actively pursue arrests in locations that had legally voted for medical Marijuana use, and also not to prosecute doctors for prescribing Marijuana. That was the big stumbling block they threatened, taking away a doctor's license to prescribe drugs if one of those drugs was Marijuana, thus keeping it out of the established legal distribution chain. That executive order is why California's medical Marijuana distribution has made a huge expansion in where it is available. It was limited to just a few areas, though those areas were in big population areas, now it is available everywhere that has a medical need. There are unscrupulous doctors that for $100US will issue you the card needed to buy from the Marijuana pharmacies if you don't have a real need, but those ailments that are now helped by Marijuana has also expanded. Basically if there is anything cronically wrong with you, you can get a medical card for Marijuana. Cronic being anything that has been going on, or expected to go on for a long time, stress related illness being recognised as a need. With a legitimate need for Marijuana because there wasn't anything else that could relieve the cronic severe pain from injury that didn't have severe side effects I was my doctor's only Marijuana patient, out of his 1500+ list of patients, I received both Marinol that insurance payed for (at $1600 a month), and medical Marijuana for free from my care giver. Because of my problem finding a prescription pain reliever strong enough, my doctor put me on Marijuana, I didn't ask, and he set me up with my care giver so I didn't have to go through street dealers to get my prescription filled. He was my regular doctor for 12 years before this so I didn't find him because of Marijuana. My doctor here in Thailand wishes Marijuana was legal to prescribe. It would help quite a few people with pain that don't have the money for strong prescription pain medications. She is fully aware of Marijuana's legitimate use in pain management, but helpless in getting it available for use. If it is ever tested in Thailand I am on her list as a candidate for testing.
