13. The cannabis perspective
Edited on Mon Aug-22-05 11:34 AM by firefox
There is a lot to be learned in understanding government policy/attitude on cannabis. The cannabis community brought us the vaporizer which could do a lot for tobacco smokers, especially if they were legal. It is a subtance that would do wonders on reducing the use and harms of alcohol. It is the greatest medicinal plant in history but now all of a sudden it has no medical use. It was a plant used by man like no other in its uses and its scale. Then the drug warriors and their police state came.

I learned what the word intransigence meant studying cannabis attitude. Reason has no place in justifying policy. The harm policy/attitude inflicts with its arrests, imprisonments, forfeitures, job losses, family breakups, and fines and court costs means absolutely nothing. Subverting science with wasted tax money means nothing to the drug warriors that must find something to demonize.

The biggest thing to learn from a developed cannabis perspective is that the real criminals are in government.

Take the 15 words I use to explain why cannabis prohibition survives despite the fact that there was no call by the public or health care workers to adopt its prohibition.

We have Cannabis Prohibition in 2005 because.

1. Corruption
2. Controlled media
3. It's the money.
4. Lies, bullshit, and obfuscation
5. We are ruled by treason.

I do not regard our government as legitimate as its purpose is all wrong. The true government of the US has been overthrown by its domestic enemies. Look at the mission statement of the federal government as written in the Preamble and you will see the government we have is in opposition to that mission statment. We really are ruled by treason. Cannabis Prohibition stands promoting the general welfare on its head.

Yes, the government is a conspiracy of criminals.
