Facts don't matter when you have lobbyists lining politicians pockets with millions of dollars. Let's be real for a minute. Big pharma would hate to see it legal, you know how many people would STOP using prescription medication? They would definitely lose millions of dollars. Tobacco would also take a big hit. It's about greed, simple as that. Get marijuana lobbyists paying off politicians it would be legal in a month. People continually talking about how good it is for you, how the Deceleration of Independence was written on hemp. None of that matters, nobody cares. Money sways votes. Money and ignorance.
