We don't need anyone's approval to use cannabis!

in #cannabis7 years ago (edited)

Is it 2018? I feel like I need to confirm that lately. While support for ending the prohibition of cannabis rises at a rate which is seemingly endless, the US Government seems to have its head up its ass yet again.

What do I mean by that? The top health official in the United States, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar, actually said that there is no such thing as medical marijuana in a recent interview.

His suggestion is essentially to just keep taking FDA-approved pharmaceutical drugs (shocker), and stressed that cannabis is not FDA approved. It doesn't need to be!

We don't need anyone's approval to use cannabis!

We don't need the FDA to tell us whether or not it's safe!

We don't care about drug scheduling!

We know it's safe!

Wonderful post and it shares a thought that we all know in our hearts

Thanks! And thanks for resteeming too!

Yes, we know it's safe! Even the WHO recently admitted that.
The FDA is corrupt, and appears bent on killing off most poor and middle-class people.
Cannabis can cure cancers. We all have an endocannabinoid system that receives various cannabinoids and generates health benefits.

My wife @MediKatie was arrested Saturday at a cannabis protest for a bogus obstruction charge. She spent a day and night in jail, with mostly heroin junkies who were being given methadone to ease their cravings. My wife was given Advil for her cannabis cravings. How messed up is that? And my wife has a doctor's permission to use cannabis, in writing, for her cancer pain.
End the stigma against cannabis users!

I read about @MediKatie being arrested, and I was very sorry to hear that. Glad to hear she's out, and was able to get some dabs in to make her feel better. :)

I am starting to hold a tiny bit of hope that with blockchain technology, we can build a just world alongside the corrupt one that currently has its strangleholds on civilization, and end up being more powerful in the end, and achieve a connected, peaceful world for the first time ever.

One of the biggest strangleholds that the current system has on our lives is poverty. When the system is able to keep so many Earthlings in poverty, there's not much we can do as people to rise up. I think that stranglehold is going to loosen very quickly and very soon.

I'm kind of rambling, but of course in this newer, better world, people would be free to use cannabis however they damn well pleased.

Well it's that kind of "rambling" that is needed. Few people are willing to have those big thoughts, and fewer still talk about them openly, so thank you! That's very similar to the kind of world I see, too, and I also think it's possible. I sort of believe nowadays that the power of positive thinking isn't just a nice thought. It does seem somewhat possible to manifest reality with our consciousness and to think and feel our way to better outcomes. That's an empowering sort of idea. I think blockchain code and other advances are potential tools for unlocking new possibilities for humanity. Steemit is bringing good people and good ideas together, and maybe that's going to help us focus our collective consciousness and steer things to a better outcome.
But yes, let us stop all this rambling! :P

Absolutely! I completely agree. 💚🙌

Thanks! I'm glad to hear it.

Cannabis is medicine to me and 2 million Americans. Alex Azar is a puppet.

It's a medicine to people all over the world! I don't think they'll be able to maintain its prohibition much longer.
