It seems to be the pattern for governments that
clearly favour synthetics and pharmaceuticals over plants. From the
times of the ancient Chinese and ancient Egyptians through Romans and
Culpeper's Herbal until 1971 cannabis was used as a medicine. But in
1961 and then in 1971 in the UK, cannabis was suddenly deemed to have
no medical uses and possession, cultivation etc was banned. Nowadays
Bedrocan is grown and sold through pharmacies in Netherlands and
prescribed in other countries, Sativex a whole-plant extract marketted
almost worldwide (both produced by pharmaceutical companies, pharmers,
not farmers), as a medicine is now available in many US States and in
fact USA has been supplying it to a very few patients for decades
whilst all the time burning crops, arresting growers and claiming it
has no medical use in international treaties and many country's
national legislation. That reveals the hypocrisy and corruption of the
governments we have elected.
