So, if the pill form doesn't work, why not let the pharmacist dispense it in smokable form? The cost is another matter that can be solved without making drugs legal and readily available to anyone.

"The cost is another matter that can be solved without making drugs legal and readily available to anyone. "

And just how would this be done? More government? The pills cost less than 5 cents to produce. They are sold anywhere from 6-10 dollars EACH. You are advocating price controls. Price controls are UNCONSTITUTIONAL. (Besides the fact that they have never worked from a historical perspective)

California had a system of distributiuon, but that low-life Ashcroft sent in his storm troopers to shut them down. (Gee we must have won the War on Terrorism if he could spare that many people to shut down these distribution centers).

Why on earth should ANYONE be forced to pay for something that they can grow themselves anyway? That's not compassion. That's a shake-down for the benefit of the Pharmaceutical Complex.
