Don't forget the fact that it gives the US a convenient way to get lots of people locked up and forced into labor to keep US corporations competitive with those of other nations as well as bankroll the entire private prison industry.

Well, that and the paper industry, DuPont, and the whole conservative narrative about POC being violent junkies when using it.

Yeah, only drugs that are easy to abuse and OD on and we can sell at a 3,000% markup should be legal!

Medical marijuana shouldn’t go to these companies, it should be outright legal no restrictions so the pharmaceuticals can’t get a dollar from the people.

You have to plant the Seroquel seed between the last 3 days of April and first 4 days of May. You want it to get reflected sun only and a humidity level of 69.420% exactly. Water it thrice daily with Monster Mango Energy Drink and Goldschlager.
