Is it too much to ask of these extremely high paid officials to get it right the first time?
Huge pensions for just serving 1 term, are they not paid to be the voice of the people?
We as responsible citizens should not have to settle for what they toss us!

Yeah, Shag, it's too much to ask. The political process seldom gets it right the first time or the tenth for that matter. You are, maybe, expecting perfection?

Naw!, not perfection just do what they are paid to do, listen to the voice of the people that is all!
Do most people want big pharm to completely take over the med side of things, I think not but that is just what will happen if we do not watch the bastards...FO shore!
Peace and other hippy stuff to ya man!

living anywhere in the US, sched2 will be the same

med condition? well i guess if you have a condition that a MD will prescribe a pot pill for.

good luck with that.

funny, i just got neg repped for this post.

hmmm?! a hardcore hillary supporter i guess?

sorry guys, just because she's a dem, does not mean she's on our side.

she wants sched 2, and when you can show me a sched2 drug that a Naturapathic doctor can 'recommend' for you since sched 2 drugs have to be prescribed.
or when you can show me a sched 2 drug that you can get from a 'dispensary' or in it's raw form...
only at a pharmacy and the pharmacy will never sell buds.

let's see, it will be the same in NY as California?
so either nearly all California patients will be removed access to cannabis
or NY gets an upgrade and gets a huge increase in access
i don't believe either extreme will happen, all state control is not disappearing

[shaggyballs]

If cannabis is reduced to sched 2 all medical cannabis will need to approved by the FDA before being prescribed.
You will not be allowed to smoke, no doctor will prescribe smoke with the FDA and the AMA to answer to.
Say goodbye to everything not in pill form or things such as sativex spay ect.

Are you sure sched 2 is what America needs?
I am sure it is not.

Wouldn't schedule 3 or 4 be more appropriate than schedule 2 for cannabis?

Schedule II

Schedule II drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with a high potential for abuse, with use potentially leading to severe psychological or physical dependence. These drugs are also considered dangerous. Some examples of Schedule II drugs are:

Combination products with less than 15 milligrams of hydrocodone per dosage unit (Vicodin), cocaine, methamphetamine, methadone, hydromorphone (Dilaudid), meperidine (Demerol), oxycodone (OxyContin), fentanyl, Dexedrine, Adderall, and Ritalin

Schedule III

Schedule III drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence. Schedule III drugs abuse potential is less than Schedule I and Schedule II drugs but more than Schedule IV. Some examples of Schedule III drugs are:

Products containing less than 90 milligrams of codeine per dosage unit (Tylenol with codeine), ketamine, anabolic steroids, testosterone

Schedule IV

Schedule IV drugs, substances, or chemicals are defined as drugs with a low potential for abuse and low risk of dependence. Some examples of Schedule IV drugs are:

Xanax, Soma, Darvon, Darvocet, Valium, Ativan, Talwin, Ambien, Tramadol

I can't imagine you could get it schedule 5 or taken off the list completely but 3 or 4 seems far more appropriate than 2 to me.
