Let's face it, the U.S. government
stinks when it comes to medical marijuana, and it seems hard to
believe that pharmaceutical company lobbyists aren't part of the
problem.
While
research has shown that the body is full of cannabinoid
receptors that control appetite, pain, memory and mood, cannabis
is still concerned a drug without medical use. Hmmm.
Where does the pharmaceutical industry make significant amounts
of money, controlling appetite, pain, and mood. Patients could
either smoke a cheap weed, or pay billions to drug companies. Thus,
pharmaceutical companies have created three fake cannabis drugs,
Savitex, Acomplia, and Cannabinor, while dozens of other drug
companies work on cannabis drugs.
Soon we will have an interactive
forum covering all aspects today's drug issues. Until then you

as soon as it is active. E-mail
