Why does cannabis remain illegal for medical use in the U.S., under federal law?
Not enough people are educated on the many uses of cannabis as medicine and most people have been programmed to believe that it is not medicine, when, in fact, it is and has been used for medicine for over 5,000 years. People from many cultures and civilizations have used it to treat many medical conditions throughout history and it has just been recently labeled, in the last 70 years or so, as a threat to society.
