    The war on drugs has made research into cannabis difficult and compared to alcohol and tobacco, we are practically blind. Legalization has changed this and we should pay attention.

    The only thing to match the propaganda of the drug war is the CBD cure-all craze. I think that it’s wise to do some basic research so that one day we can have an informed opinion rather than a knee jerk reaction.

        It’s wild to imagine the U.S. congress actually promoting independent scientific research. I wish I lived in a world like that.
