Thousands of people each day have to suffer with constant pain. Most of these people are typical law obiding citizens, however they're being charged for the use of cannabis which is the only thing that can relieve their pain and make life worth living.

People who suffer from unbearable conditions such as MS, Cancer, Crohn's, Arthritis and chronic pain can all be relieved though the medicinal use of cannabis. This has been a working system in most of the states in America for years, generating millions in tax revenue and helping sufferers who take pharmaceutical drugs which create even worse side effects.
