I know that the large majority of people on Steemit are against regulation (thus why we are into cryptocurrency), but I still don't understand why lawmakers are so against cannabis, at least in medicine.  There has probably been more research and studies over the years than many other prescription painkillers and antidepressants.  Many of these prescriptions are still not completely understood on how they work (just read about almost any SSRI or MAOI and you'll see "it is thought to work by...", but researchers have no definite reasoning).  I'm not for the government always getting their piece of the pie, but come on...this is almost a no-brainer...you want the black/grey market to keep getting 100% of the income?  Just sayin...
