@JLeslie haha, well good! I wasn’t trying to.
I’ve just seen sooo many people who needed the help and could only get Marinol prescriptions, which, trust me, are NOT the same result. It’s so sad to see. And many doctors cut off pain pills since the Pfizer lawsuit, so we have a ton of elderly, hurting patients with no relief. It’s just not right.
Could you afford $120 for a weeks worth of medicine? That’s basically what it amounts to here, at the dispensary legally. Not to mention the $300 doctor fee, then to actually get your med license is anther couple hundred. These low-income patients can never afford that, that’s why we need recreational to balance it out and hopefully keep costs lower.
None of this legalization affects the bottom rung of the income ladder who need it most, they’ll get it from the streets or not at all. That’s why I’m all about decriminalization personally.
