I will agree to that, second point. I hope your right on the first point about the Fed falling to Cali.
I think you missed my point. Federal law will never change at this rate. At least not until every state has legalized Cannabis and they have no choice left. I think you are mistaken that we as a movement "aren't pushing for federal legalization, instead of wasting our time doing it 50x over from state to state".
We of course would LOVE to see the fed's legalize Cannabis. We also would love them to stop raiding Medical store fronts. We would love them to stop getting into foreign wars, and we would LOVE for them to stop raising taxes every year...
but the reality is they aren't going to. So instead we have to do it the only way we have the ability to, and that is from state to state. We are up to what? 13 Medical states now? (my numbers are off, I am going off the top of my head), and yet the US federal government still hasn't changed it from Schedule I to II or III? Why do you think that if we pushed for full legalization it would work, when over 80% of the US thinks we should legalize it for Medical use and they haven't done anything about it.
In the end, we are better off not wasting our time trying to move a giant when we can move a midget. In the grand scheme of things until each state has passed laws for legalization, the government won't be hard pressed to push for anything but the same ol' same ol'.
