Oh I saw that they really did not reach a conclusion. I’m kind of surprised they even bothered with publishing it. Why not wait till medical marijuana has been legal long enough to have a large enough population to do a better study?

Because it is a propaganda piece. Do an internet search with the title, and you'll see endless pages of links to newspapers reporting the JAMA "research study".

They do this constantly. When these "scientific" or "medical studies" are published, people believe them, even professionals. That is how they accomplished the Global Warming Scam. Innocent people fall for this crap.

If you don't think they are after you kids, think again.

I don't know either -- the whole confused article seems like a bit part from a Cheech & Chong movie. The indecisiveness of the language suggests the authors are the ones abusing drugs.

I think they will eventually find (if they can remember what they started the study for) that the kind of people addicted to opioids are the same people that took up recreational cannabis use. They just transition from one to the other, most often from cannabis to opioids.

Wrong: "in the years after the legalization of medical marijuana, states that did so had a rate that was 25% lower than what we’d expect to see in that state, given past trends and what was going on in the rest of the country."
