“I was a pretty good investigative reporter, because I often saw the way companies would deceive, especially when there’s money on the line,” he said. “I mention that because I think this story of cannabis legalization is a story of deception, but it’s also sort of self-deception.

Absolutely and from day 1. The nose of the camel was "medical" marijuana. It was 100% put on ballots across the country by pro-legalization forces. They cared NOTHING for the sick but this was the only way they could get legalized marijuana. Amazingly their propaganda campaign was effective. They convinced enough people that SMOKING pot was healthy! Unbelievable! And today we are nearing the end game of this deception. Full scale legalization of EVERY type of drug. This is ALL designed to destroy American culture and society. LOOK at EVERY city where decriminalization and/or non-enforcement of drugs laws happen. Pure cesspools eventually.

Cannabis has medically beneficial properties; whether those benefits outweigh the harms of smoking for any particular patient is a question for him and his doctor, not government.

Chemotherapy patients have notoriously had trouble keeping food down and lose strength because of that. THC which has long been known for causing "the munchies" allows these patients to survive instead of withering away or dying by aspiration of vomit.

I agree the other frivolous excuses are silly.
