The City of Berkeley, Calif. recently announced a new law in which marijuana dispensaries will have to donate 2% of their cannabis to low-income people starting in August of next year (OpposingViews). This could be a good law that other states like Florida can use to regulate to use of marijuana if they do decide to make it legal. With the donation law, poor individuals can get access to the marijuana they need which is known to sell for at least $400 an ounce in California. This price is only the street value of the plant-form (what you smoke) of medical marijuana, so other forms such as liquid or extracted may cost more. The most important part about state regulation is that poor families with "debilitating medical conditions" will have a way to obtain the medical marijuana they need to alleviate their symptoms.

With all the factual evidence pointing to the amazing benefits of medical marijuana, I agree and vote yes on amendment 2 which will legalize medical marijuana - buy real marijuana online. I have a grandmother who has epilepsy seizures and if a dose of prescribed marijuana will help alleviate her or any other patient's symptoms, why not give her or other patients dosages by pill? The Epilepsy Foundation released a statement earlier this year that supported the rights of patients and families living with seizures and epilepsy to access physician-directed care, including marijuana (OpposingViews). There is no factual evidence of anyone dying from marijuana and my research concluded mostly positive benefits. Weighing out the benefits of medical marijuana and the fact that poor households may have a way to obtain it, gives the state of Florida all the reasons and factual evidence it needs to legalize marijuana.

The Truth About Tobacco and Marijuana

WHAT ARE THEY? Substances Are non food, mood-altering substances that are not deemed medically necessary but that are used in an effort to escape from the problems of life, to get a dreamy feeling, or a sense of well-being or of elation. Tobacco-An addictive substance containing toxic substances with eventual harmful effects when ingested into the body. Tobacco contains thirty different substances such as nicotine, arsenic, alcohol and ammonia. Nicotine is one of the oldest, the most widely used, and, in the same amounts, stronger and more addictive than cocaine. The euphoric effect of nicotine is the same as morphine and cocaine. According to one researcher, "tobacco contains as nice a collection of poisons as you will find anywhere. The tobacco used in pipes and cigars contains more nicotine, more cancerous tars, and produces more dangerous carbon monoxide gas than that used in cigarettes. Marijuana (Also known as pot, reefer, grass, ganja, or weed) has been the focus of much co...

 The time needed to create a proposal depends on how complex the proposal is, how many people need to participate, and how organized everyone is. Things to consider for the schedule are: Research time First draft writing time First draft review time Second draft and incorporating comments Final review Changes from final review Final proofread of all pages Production of PDF and/or printed proposal If the writer starts with the needed information in hand, the research time will be negligible. If the writer must collect all the data from multiple individuals, the research process will obviously take a while. If you have handed the writer an outline for your proposal, that will make writing the first draft more efficient than if the writer needs to "wing it." Here again, a pre-designed proposal kit can help with ideas and examples about the best organization for successful proposals. Every proposal needs at least one review and one final proofread. For a very simple p...

Marijuana Use May Increase Risk of Testicular Cancer

Smoking marijuana may increase men's risk of testicular cancer, a new study from the University of Southern California (USC) finds. This new study discovered that men who smoked weed or marijuana were twice as likely as men who had not to get a dangerous form of the disease. If you don't know, testicular cancer is the most common form of cancer diagnosed in men under the age of 45. It's also on the rise, says Scott Eggener, MD, a cancer surgeon at the University of Chicago who has studied the trend. There was a study released earlier this year that showed marijuana use is up, with 1 in 10 teens now smoking marijuana at least 20 times a month. The USC study compared a group of 163 men with testicular cancer to a similar group of 292 healthy men who were questioned about recreational drug use. The researchers of California discovered those men who used marijuana had a two-fold increased risk of testicular tumors and, more specifically, tend to affect younger men and are diffi...
