I do hear you and I do agree that it's coming. However, there is an MJ factoid that I'd like to share with any who may care. I believe it shines some very sharp light onto why the last 80 years were the way they were for cannabis.
Not to be condescending to anyone, but no one ever talks about this in the Mainstream media or most anywhere else for that matter.
Most people think that THC was the first cannabinoid isolated from cannabis via Dr. Raphael Mechoulam in 1967 or so.
That is not true.
The first cannabinoid isolated from cannabis was actually CBD, and it was done in the United States during the late 30's and early 40's.
No one believe me?
If so, that's not surprising. The Mainstream media presented CBD to the public as if it was just figured out right before the airing of their first Sanjay Gupta special.
On the contrary...
Reefer Madness was produced in 1936:

Cannabis became illegal in 1937 through the 1937 Marihuana Tax Act:

And then, the patent for the Isolation of Cannabidiol was applied for in 1940:

I don't think it is at all a conspiracy theory to claim that the United States Government made cannabis illegal in order to guarantee the 80 years of "success" that followed for Big Alcohol, Big Tobacco, and Big Pharma.
