aruka,
It is easy to see where someone who is not a full fledged adult would want to become angry at an adult conversation, they did not full understand, when it seemed like something they loved was under attack. i am a HUGE fan of outdoor (greenhouse) growing. i could be wrong but im pretty sure thats how it all began...so yea pretty good tek, as far as that goes. having seen meds produced in several states in several ways legal and void where prohibited, i can assure you outdoor can be quite potent.
as for farmers making money off excess.... it is illegal to "farm" marijuana. a "farm" only has limits based on acres to the amount of crop to be grown. marijuana is a legal grey zone and not to be sold in the state of oregon. a farmer uses the land to feed the world, a care taker grows medicine to relieve the pain of the sick. if a caregiver has excess plant material, it should be made into easy stored concetrate.
as to helping those in need...you seem like a cop and i doubt you really know the meaning of the word help or even are fully aware of the world around you.
as for going to the doctor...they paid for an education and spent years making sure they knew enough for you to trust in their judgement that these pills would make you better. then realized they would never be able to pay for a home and the schooling they just got unless they sell out...hard, so they give you script for hard drugs to calm your nerves when you piss in public and you work a steady hard 45+ a week job scrubbing toilets at the local middle school for health insurance so you can get the pills for 25 bucks while the other 375 a bottle is covered. but those pills are made in multi million dollar factories and the chems to make them are sucked out of tree sap and culled from mold samples from the bottom of the sea, so that cost money to extract pure forms of, that wont cause stroke or liver failure after being cut with asprin and 30 other powders. so that cost is ALL explainable. all of that breaks down like it should in every ecenomic platform ever...but what DOESNT make sense
is growers spending 300 bones to grow 30 lbs and then charging 100 an oz to the people who made it possible for them to grow, cause thats what the guys doing it illegally are doing. im saying if you grow for a patient you should fill their need, if the cost of providing them with meds is more then you can afford then make arrangments with that person. if you can't afford the script a doctor gives you..for chemo, know what happens???? you die. you fucking die. so i can see where that is a pretty good program to follow. but im against letting poor people die sad. not a lot i have been able to do about the dying part.
take advantage of a flawed system. i am hopeing like hell you mean the one that say i am free and then would make me an animal in a cage for living free. in oregon the VOTERS the people have said that marijunana should be used for the sick, so that when uncle sam would drag a free man or women before him to judge, a shield of sympathy could be cast to defend the oppressed.
ill probally edit this later
