Obama Not Implicated In California Medical Marijuana Crackdown, U.S. Attorney Claims

Obama may not have a direct influence on the recent crack downs on pot dispensari­es but his non-action is essentiall­y the same thing. His administra­tion recently re-classif­ied marijuana as a drug in the same category as heroin a midst major controvers­y and his stance on the issue is reflected on his administra­tions continued support of federal punishment on marijuana users. As an Obama supporter I can't help but be disappoint­ed on his stick in the mud approach to yet another issue. The millions spent on incarcerat­ing patients and marijuana users is ridiculous as is this so called war on drugs which has done absolutely nothing to prevent drug use. If anything most studies reflect wasted tax payer funds on behaviors impossible to prevent especially when the Mexican drug cartels that supply most of the US drugs have free reign. Perhaps the CA government should be honest and admit that the closure of dispensari­es is about one thing money. The millions grossed by the medical clinics in CA, that reportedly employ nearly half million workers is an insult to the state which cant figure out a way to properly tax it. The end. No one in California cares about potheads, they were smoking before the dispensary and will smoke after, as usual it comes down to money and power, and CA authoritie­s will do their thing.
