This is GREAT news….............do you know why….?  Here is my thought on this…........

If a supplier can only have THREE CUSTOMERS, and MAKE NO PROFIT….......then let’s apply this
to the pharmaceutical companies too..!!!  They CAN MAKE NO PROFIT, and ONLY HAVE 3 CUSTOMERS..!!
They make an entire bottle of pills for about FIVE CENTS (if that), and sell it for $80.
Well….....if we apply the same “logic” to them as they want to apply to medical MJ, then
they’ll go bankrupt…....OR….......???

How fast do you think they would lobby to have medical MJ legalized…?  Faster than you could
think it.

All of this legal wrangling is just a tremendous waste of taxpayers‘ money, as is the whole
Cannabis Prohibition. Cannabis should be legalized, regulated and taxed just like alcohol or
tobacco. We should be making money on Cannabis, not throwing tax revenue down a bottomless pit
of failed and futile prohibition policy. One day we will be looking back at all this shaking our
heads in disbelief over all this prohibitionist nonsense, in the same way we do now over the
Alcohol Prohibition.

This issue is really where the Repubs should put their position where their mouth is: Promote
individual freedom, let people make their own health care choices, deregulate the business
environment, shrink the government and get it out of our private lives, instead of doing just
the opposite.

As for the Obama Administration, and Eric Holder in particular, they ain’t just hypocrites
they’re flat out liars, for saying they would not prosecute those who are following state laws.
We all know how that ended in Montana.

@NPDXReporter I think I'll start strategically calling it "pre-lunch" too, and then "forget" to eat my real lunch later. #dessertforlunch
