I wish a POTUS had the ability to come out and say "legalize it already" without dooming themselves. I get the feeling that this medical marijuana crackdown is to appease a group or groups who don't like how easy it's become for people to get it for basically any reason. I've seen this happen in CA but that's just the way it's going to be people, you can't micromanage everything and it's not a big scary monster or communism or whatever, it's pot.

That money would have been better spent on cracking down on the criminal activity that comes with illegal marijuana.

So how much did the states spend I enforce it? I take it they have standards o who can use it for medical purposes ;not just use for if you feel like it and doctor have same standards as other prescriptions. The rule of law is either enforce or its whatever turns you on. Some of what turns many on is dangerous to others and society.
