Why Won't the Government Let James Stacy Tell the Truth?

Or change something in your government, as we as a democracy are supposed to and need to do.
It's not written over and over again in our Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence for fun.
The law is created by those who profit from it.

Why Won't the Government Let James Stacy Tell the Truth?

Isn't this just more of the same that this website was supposed to "change".
Even though it was the most popular, most talked about, most debated topic, Obama hasn't moved to change Federal Law.

It was written in our Declaration of Independence, "That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

How many presidents with party-happy money hemorrhaging campaigns where promises lead to false ends must we suffer through?

Living in fear of the ruling body because the people sent to protect and serve imprison well meaning, constructive people on a daily basis for a plant?

Pursuit of Happiness my ass

Pot and the Safe Driving Myth

The funniest part is that for the drug Marinol, synthetic THC, there is only a warning that "Patients receiving treatment with Marinol should be specifically warned not to drive, operate machinery, or engage in any hazardous activity until it is established that they are able to tolerate the drug and to perform such tasks safely."
