It's a fools errand to expect the DEA to voluntarily vote to ramp down the decades of hyperbole on the substance which comprises the majority of the fuel for their gravy train, of course. That will need to come from congress or executive leadership, and believe me, the people will lead so eventually the leaders will follow.

But if its benefits you are interested in, the benefits of legalization aren't hypothetical, they're real and in action as we speak.
