Cannabis is listed as a Schedule I drug in the United States, meaning it is believed by our government to harbor no medicinal uses, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, and a high rate of addition, also despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.
The US is asking for more research to be done on cannabis, but they’re not mentioning the fact that they’re dooming this research before it begins with ridiculous restrictions and obstacles.
Dr. Sanjay Gupta has been witness to this dysfunction, and also witness to the value of cannabis when he visited countries that fully support research into medical cannabis.
Dr. Gupta himself is reformed in terms of his thinking on cannabis. I’m thinking if he can do it, there are a lot of people in government that should be doing it too. The wonders that legal cannabis nationwide could do for people are incredible, from treating PTSD to long term, chronic pain from injury.
