Cannabis Dispensary Owners Case Study

In recorded medical history, there has never been a death as a result of marijuana use or overdose. While medical professionals agree on the benefits of marijuana use for many serious conditions, the FDA will not step over federal law and begin testing the medical properties of marijuana. This leads all medical marijuana growers and dispensaries in a precarious position. While states’ law allows licensed individuals to grow and distribute to patients with prescriptions, they are still technically breaking federal drug and narcotics laws, and can be subject to arrest, seizure of products and equipment, and fines. They can also be charged with violating federal drug and narcotics laws that could land them in jail and, if convicted, leave a mark on their permanent legal records. Yet even with so much risk involved in the business, there are 984 registered dispensaries currently operating in the United States. So one might ask, why do they risk everything to violate federal law and sell illegal drugs? The most popular opinion is that the federal government is wrong in outlawing the use and distribution of marijuana for medical use and that the risk is worth the reward if sick people receive the only treatment that can help them in their time of greatest need. Mill’s harm principle states that the government should only interfere in

I, Brendan Lombardi have spent the previous four months researching and learning about U.S. government while simultaneously exploring policy issues ranging from abortion to the legalization of marijuana. Through this research, I have learned things about Congress that I did not fully grasp concept wise in the past, such as the fact that the Senate is the most prestigious branch of congress and that getting new legislation passed is a much more layered and complex process then most people imagine. It is through this knowledge that I feel prepared to take on the highly-debated issue of legalizing both recreational and medical marijuana in the state of Georgia.

Applicant is 36 year old male with two children, separated from his wife for nearly 6 years, but engaged to his now fiancee'. The applicant is seeking admission to CSAC for the first time and at this moment, he is currently at the Hartford Dispensary in Norwich, CT being detoxed, not for illicit use, but due to an altercation while defending his girlfriend, according to the applicant.

The Applicant reported, he's not currently using heroin as his drug of choice, only THC daily by smoking 1 joint a day. His last use of the substance was yesterday. The reason he's seeking treatment

The issue that I will be researching and attempting to change is to limit the amount of weed dispensaries, and make sure to give a cut of the profit to schools or other organizations. I am choosing this issue because in Colorado weed dispensaries are taking over lots of real estate and not helping the community.

Medical marijuana has been a debatable subject of whether it is safe or harmful to people with serious conditions, such as cancer. To add on to the debate, medical marijuana clinics, or “dispensaries” have been placed in several communities around the United States, causing uproar between the supporters and the non supporters of medical marijuana. Some argue that dispensaries help their community and the economy, while others believe that they will cause trouble in their towns. Although some people strongly believe that putting medical marijuana dispensaries in their cities will be beneficial to the community, medical marijuana clinics are unsafe and not helpful to the communities where they

The legal status of cannabis in the United States has shifted numerous times since pharmaceutical regulation took root in the 1850s. However, since the passage of the Controlled Substances Act by the 91st United States Congress in 1970, cannabis has been federally classified as a Schedule I substance. This means that, under federal law, cannabis is considered to have “high potential for abuse” and “no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States.” The fallout of this Congressional decision has been decades of wrongful imprisonment for millions of nonviolent drug-related offenses. It’s inhumane, and it’s a waste of valuable tax dollars that could be better spent funding patient-centric recovery facilities designed to

Therefore, it is necessary to immediately prevent the legalization of marijuana before it becomes too late. Cannabis is not harmful to the human body or the brain if used in moderation. Marijuana does not bring the threat to the general public.

This article is about the new forms of marijuana being sold on the streets and the dangerous effects it has on its users. Marijuana is a collection of chemicals sprayed on tea leaves, grass clippings and other plant materials and is usually called K-2 or Spice. It first started with teenagers who were looking for a new and cheaper “high”. Most people who become addicts to drugs like this start out just experimenting with the cheapest high possible but then move on to new and more intricate types of street drugs.

This drug is becoming more and more dangerous because it keeps changing. This is a problem because when

Living in the 21st Century, a majority of the laws and regulations that guide our daily lives have already been legitimized and written decades ago. Although a large portion of these laws still exist today, there is always need to revise and rewrite laws. In this article I will talk about the myths and beliefs of marijuana and compare them to reliable sources to form an opinion on whether or not marijuana is a relatively safe drug for medical and recreational use along with the physical and social effects to the user and their environment.

Dog owner Kate Pinto came home to find her Great Dane mix drooling uncontrollably and struggling to walk. “It was just so terrifying, infuriating and sad,” Pinto said. “I felt so helpless for not being able to explain to [Tembo] what was happening. I can’t imagine tripping as a dog and not knowing when it would end.”

It seems only fitting that the cannabis industry is much more welcoming to women than other industries, since it is the female marijuana plant that is the key for cannabis consumers. About 36% of the leadership in the cannabis industry comprises women. According to Marijuana Business Daily, roughly 63% of those are in high-level executive leadership positions. Comparing this to the rest of the business industries, women there exist in approximately 5% of high-level positions.
