I am so happy for you and the work you are doing...Like you said and I can see, if y'all do it right and Cannabis is legalized & regulated in a responsible way the tax revenue will convince many other states to follow! I think. Money talks!
If I do make it out there I will look you up!!
I share the anger of BIG Pharma but I have to admit they do do a lot of good as well...I think we all lose perspective sometimes due to the way BIG Pharma acts. I know some will die before they admit BIG Pharma does anything good but I know I am living in the trenches. Having said that, I know BIG Pharma does not want to see Cannabis legalized!
I have a short story about how Health Care Reform has already helped me...The medicine that I take for my Neuropathic pain is really expensive! Well, many of the BIG Pharma Companies had these "so-called" plans for people in my position who are completely disabled & can't afford their meds...Well, the plans were basically for show before the HCR debate started because when you read the fine print basically no one would qualify...Well, I have no idea if it had anything to do with Obama's secret deal with BIG Pharma or simply the spotlight was now on these companies once the debate started but they changed their policy! The company that makes my med changed their policy and accepted my application after twice denying me! Now they send me my meds every 3 months in the mail FREE OF CHARGE! This change happened June of 2009 so it obviously had something to do with the debate or Obama's deal with BIG Pharma...So, either way I just want folks to know some people really are benefiting from the mess. I know it allowed me to be able to continue taking my medicine at the doses my doctors want & allowed me to keep my house! I have no choice but to be thankful for Obama doing what he did even if it was not exactly what WE ALL really wanted.
Again, THANK-YOU for what you are doing!
