I hope this Country goes to Pot

Philip Morris stocks on day growth  from $83.03 a share to $998.00 . This on a day that the market closes 300 points down and reports worst week since 2011 . Is it just  me or is the country in the need of going to pot. It appears to have worked for the Marlboro company that has had its back on the ropes for years, thanks to the anti-smoking  campaigns they where forced to fund with their own profits.
   Or we could ask the states that have now gone full legalization . Colorado ,and Washington both have seen incredible growth in local and state economy  since thumbing their noses at the feds. New opportunities in cash crops and retail continue to pop up and tax dollars keep rolling in. Other states that have already joined the medical legalization continue to see the loss in not being the pioneer state or states for retail and industrial hemp that will drive the economy vary soon . other states not even on the band wagon yet
will not stand a chance in this gold rush if they don't get on the ball    States like Ohio where I happen to live have attempted for years to join the legalization train . With a climate perfect for growing and an economy in the toilet we could use a piece of the action . Slowed at every turn with new laws for collecting signatures for petitions, and a population led to believe a plant is the seed of Satan  its no wander we are about to miss the boat. Most Ohioans have no idea the plant has already been decriminalized in the state .
   New poll numbers show support for the full legalization for the first time ever . More impressive is the approval is as high as approval numbers for congress or the president . So what is driving this new found love of the plant ? Is it all the known medical benefits ? Could it be the boom to the economy ? Maybe its the negative impact legalization has on drug cartels over the boarder ? Or perhaps people just want to get high ?

  I myself have not had a toke in twenty years .
After my accident no less then three doctors have told me it would be better to toke then to take the pills they have to offer ? The catch is if I fail a drug test the state takes away my disability, and I may have to repay all the medical bills . Do you see what they have going here ? Is it just me or is it time to stop the state sponsored drug addiction program ? Im just one person that can tell you a trip to the pain clinic is an all day thing . Every time I go I see new faces and the waiting time gets longer . Doctors that don't play by the rules quickly find their offices closed . The reality of this is simple if the state can not control it they can not profit from it . Check with friends with chronic pain and see if the same pills are not prescribed for the most part. If a better kick back comes along then that manufacture is out till they pony up . I had this problem over the Holidays with a pill that was or now is banned in Ohio. Try getting a hold of a Doctor on New years eve to change a prescription some time its not easy . So I was out for two days but the state got a cut when I got it filled . We need to fix this below I put the links for two great organizations ORG, and NORML contact them get involved and lets end state sponsored drug trade . Our solders want to come home not guard poppy fields for drug companies .
