I would like to hear why this drug is not available at the drug store like other things of benefit. It is not right to make people who can be helped by any drug to have to buy it on the street. If marijuana is good for treatment for any medical condition recognized by doctors, it should be available by prescription. The very large number of plants some are suggesting should be allowed, seem destined for sale for other than medical use. I fail to understand why the Legislature does not do something to help those in need. I hope more information become available to educate us on the real facts of this issue.
