Medical Marijuana a Hit With Seniors

Seniors are giving rave reviews for medical marijuana.

In a new survey, those who turned to it for treating chronic pain reported it reduced pain and decreased the need for opioid painkillers.

Nine out of 10 liked it so much they said they'd recommend medical pot to others.

"I was on Percocet and replaced it with medical marijuana. Thank you, thank you, thank you," said one senior.

Another patient put it this way: "It [medical marijuana] is extremely effective and has allowed me to function in my work and life again. It has not completely taken away the pain, but allows me to manage it."

This is only the path towards taxation of the addicted and a wet dream of MD politicians. At the same time, OC doesn't want the headache of dealing with all these "high" seniors as it ramps up their "medical" weed.

The Democratic Party has voided any decency their followers had. How else do you explain Liz Warren and Waters?

You’re right- in a back handed way. I I’ve Been a recreational smoker for decades, and would never register legally. Before too long, it’ll be cheaper on the black market anyway.
