Just one more example how this administration favors big business over its people.
Drug companies lobby to keep marijuana illegal because it threatens their multi billion dollar a year synthetics and anything natural cannot be patented (ever wonder why aspirin is so cheap?).
Lumber companies fight to keep marijuana illegal because hemp is a better alternative to making paper compared to trees.
Companies are making billions a year incarcerating people because of drug violations.
Add this in with the companies that make millions off of court ordered drug counseling, government forfeitures, fines, and the government using drug laws as an excuse to violate rights its no wonder pot is illegal.
