You know what Medical Marijuana has done for Oregon that NOBODY talks about?

4. That's fine for you, but those who don't want to go to a recreational shop shouldn't have to.

The problem with how they are handling it is that there is no choice. They are forcing people into the recreational market so that certain people can profit from it. No home grows. No collective gardens. No access points. No specialists who know about endocannabinoids and the endocannabinoid system within the human body. No one who will know about CBDs or CBGs or which strain is best for which condition. And if you want to be exempt from the tax you have to register which they are handing straight over to the authorities. If people want to go to a recreational shop that's fine with me. We should all have the freedom to do as we chose. That is the point of legalization isn't it? We have a law in WA that regulates MMJ. We do not need to lump MMJ into I 502. The only reason to do so is so certain people will be able to put money in their pocket. Another issue that recreational laws do not address is the growing number of parents seeking medical cannabis for their children with the rare form of epilepsy, and all other minors who need medical cannabis.
