        Can we just legalize it nationwide already? It’s clearly heading that way.

        Sure they would. Just look at that hypocrite Boener. Railed against pot as speaker forever. Now he’s announced his mind is “changed” and he’s heavily investing in the industry.

        Wouldn't Marinol have been the first, back in 1986? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dronabinol

        While I want people to get the help they need, I feel as this will be used as a very expensive, highly adulterated, scapegoat to keep clean, real cannabis illegal.

        Boehner and McConnell are smacking their lips and licking their chops over profits soon on the way. Fast track that bill, Mitch. Shelve all that other stuff to clear the way.
