aside from Corporate Control of the money.
I understand those dispensaries that operate as true Non-Profits are rarely "busted" because they are not profiting from Cannabis.

As far as MedCanna Patients equally being capable of producing their own-No, they are Not equal. There is a Huge gap in safe accessibility and its Wrong.
Those who choose this inexpensive, safe, plant based herbal alternative medicine ARE distinctly discriminated against and its appalling. So much needless suffering.
Don't misunderstand, I Disagree with the directive and its terms. All farmers and retailers should have the opportunity to earn a living from their work. This is an Agriculture commodity.

All MedCanna patients should have a legal and safe environ from which to buy This medicine just like Anybody else who chooses PHRMA therapies and legally makes their purchases at their local Pharmacy.
