the two biggest sources of heartache concerning the weed both originated from tricky-dick's office. he was one bent and careless crook who many seem to still believe.then it dwindles down to the pharmacorps and the booze peddlers. it has very little to do with health or your well being. people walk around under 'happy legal pills' that is fed to the public as anti depressants etc.that are in fact, very dependence prone and dangerous with their side effects. the politics of marijuana has hurt more people than the weed itself. and one of these days when The Good Lord gets good and pissed off they're all going straight to hell for the suffering they've caused this planet. i have yet to see real people up in goverment who really have good social knowledge and outlooks.(which is, doubtful in that generation)power to earth people. let's do it, this is our planet.weed%20leaf

I think that pharmaceutical interests are probably the biggest single opponent of free and legal cannabis in modern times.

The industrial aspect is less important these days, as so few primary and secondary industries are even based in the west any more. 

But allowing people to grow 'herbal prozac' in their back-garden, in a natural form that no company can patent or copyright? No way!

It's a multi-billion dollar market that could be endangered if people were allowed a safe, free medicine! Better to keep locking folks up...

smokingbom-bole shankar ganga-man. don't forget the booze tycoons too, anheiser bush or however that's spelled is one one the biggest lobbies against it. the movie reefer madness left quite a dent in people's opinions, they really believe the crap that was manufactured againts dope. the history channel aired some good stuff (open minded views of medicine and science concerning the weed) but many often die with their limited views in life, thus the dark side, including the so called "holy establishments' (such as the vatican...) thrive on the ignorance of many. overpopulation brings in more hands for labor and revenue, so does the present 'drug wars'. which to me, is a very well camoflaged form of prohibition that's quite lucrative for either side of the law spectrum. the majority of criminals are drug users doind time or death, you think they really solve robbery and molestation cases as well? next time you get jumped in an alley way, how fast do they show up to protect and serve?  Funny enough they say that if it wasn't for drugs, there wouldn't be any crime, well if it wasn,t worth the buisiness, who'd bother? present laws encourage business, and you can't fluctuate the price or availability of booze because it's legal. (it already made people rich once, and just about spilt as much blood, for it's time. did away with prohibition, gang withered out. so- they had to find another source... with present law makers helping make the business as lucrative again. we all know this, question is, where is everybody headed?thanks for your thoughts, keep on stonin'- planetmanCool

Recently I was thinking how easy it could be to ammend current uk legislation, using certain rules which must be applied to interpreting statutes. If the inclusion of one understanding of a word, must exclude the opposite understanding- then 'use of drugs' MUST EXCLUDE 'misuse of drugs', when implementing it. Another rule of interpreting is that the act must be viewed as a whole, it must therefore follow that the Title words must be inluded, which should place 'use of drugs' beyond the power of uk gov law.

Given that the current legislation was tailored to govern an outdated society, it fails to account for the twenty-first century lifestyles of today's societies. There is sufficient responsibility stemming from the Euopean Union, to oversee implementing laws which refect true understandings of 'reasonable use of socially acceptable drugs'. In 2008, society's demographic reflects a majority of those which accept herbs as a reasonable part of that society. The EU can input true statistics, evidence and understanding that shows mary J as being a very achieving part of nature, when used properly. If people are expected to move with the times, the instuments by which they are governed must move with the times, because law should remain non contradictory and reasonable.
