Dear Steemit Reader,

What you’re about to hear will likely OUTRAGE you.

The U.S. government has finally admitted that marijuana kills cancer.

And you’ll never believe the REAL reason they’ve kept it hush-hush for decades!

If you or a family member has suffered, it’s going to be hard to hear this...

The National Cancer Institute, part of the U.S. Department of Health, quietly updated their official website overnight…

“Cannabinoids may be useful in treating cancer by smoking it, eating it, drinking it or even spraying it under the tongue."

“may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow”

"Cannabis has been shown to kill cancer cells in the laboratory"

Despite the numerous, proven benefits of cannabis, the US federal government wants it to remain illegal. They still classifies marijuana as a Schedule 1 drug alongside heroin and ecstasy.

Schedule I substances are described as those that have the following findings:

  1. The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse.
  2. The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.
  3. There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision.[31]


Does this classification seem consistent with what the government's own research is saying?...

It's incredible how the same thing will happen with countless other substances.. but it'll take forever for it tobegin

The future will belong to the individual to be the master of his own domain.

Thats good news.

very interesting times for canna smokers/growers. And even more for patients who benefits from thc/cbd. (imo) In 50 years it will be world wide legit. And in 100 years, they can even imagine it was illegal once. Just like beer.

happy to hear that, make sure everyone got that, I'm campaigning about cancer in my place, thx for your share.

It's only anecdotal, but I have a acquaintance who credits mass quantities of cannabis for curing her cancer. She and her husband are fairly religious and not pre-disposed to consuming illegal substances. But when her husband researched it, he preferred breaking the law to losing his wife.

Good for them. It's a damn shame everytime someone dies of cancer in this country, when there are multiple alternative treatments that would have probably saved them.

I am not sure of that, cannabis can now be used as a palliative treatment

Too bad its use lowers iq. If it could somehow have the euphoric and rereational aspect fixed and be distilled into a pill or inhaler form to cover the valid medical applications it would not be debated...

Not sure who told you that.

How would this offend any readers? We are ancappers here. This supports Ankapistan. This is great for anarcho-capitalism.

This is also great for weed smokers.

Why can't cannabis still be on the illegal drug list while used as medication? I don't see an interference here.
I don't want to say that I would not legalize it anyways, just curios why it should not work alongside... greets

The issue is not with the legality of it but rater the classification as a schedule 1 drug. The government's own research and official position now contradicts the definition of a schedule 1 drug on points 1, 2, and 3. Given the harms real people suffer to life liberty and health caused by this classification the only consistent thing to do is reclassify or decriminalize cannabis.

Schedule I substances are described as those that have the following findings:

  1. The drug or other substance has a high potential for abuse.
  2. The drug or other substance has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.
  3. There is a lack of accepted safety for use of the drug or other substance under medical supervision.

I know you my friend, and you are awesome, i know that. !! @ronaldmcatee

Most of us have known this for years. Just make it legal already, like alcohol. It will be less trouble than alcohol and it will also take a big bite out of the illegal marijuana industry.
