Medical Marijuana?

Medical marijuana is one of the most controversial policies circling media coverage. There are many that oppose, and many that want to see medical marijuana become legal; for many different reasons. Though it can't be denied that marijuana has proven to be an effective treatment for epilepsy, and the side effects are relatively nonexistent. If the worst side effect for using marijuana for medical reasons is getting the munchies, then why are so many opposing it?

The answer is the same as the reasoning during the prohibition era. Morality seems to be the leading opposition, and the media is notorious for making you feel like a bad person for wanting to see medical marijuana legalized. But what the media isn't showing, is the overwhelming crisis our nation is facing; prescription pain pill addiction. It's a problem, and we have ignored it. Why? Because pharmaceutical companies make a killing off of something that's addictive. The same way tobacco companies profit so significantly. Medical marijuana however, has shown to have no addictive properties. Conspiracy? Possibly. But don't worry, companies like Warner will continue to suppress the voices of those who see medical marijuana as a cure for a multitude of reasons. It's about time for the nation to wake up, and listen to the families of the children who no longer suffer from hundreds of seizures daily, or the cancer patient who's pain isn't nearly as bad, and who can finally eat without vomiting every 5 seconds. So what's the problem? Oh yeah, big companies and the fact that they run the big media outlets. In all honesty, if driving slow, eating a lot of food, sleeping, and having the giggles are the worst effects of marijuana, what in the hell is stopping this bill from passing? Besides big business of course, oh yea and 2% of the Florida vote (while the majority 58% approve)..
