Let me rephrase this for you: I can't believe DC allowed a pharmacy to be placed on the UDC campus. Why would anyone want to block healthcare for students? |

Anyone at the dispensary have a DC pharmacist license? If not then they’re just normal drug dealers. |

Licensing is government gatekeeping thanks to regulatory capture by special interest groups like Big Pharma. |

Someone better tell those UDC kids they’re wasting their money. https://www.udc.edu/academics/continuing-education/certifications-and-trainings/online-pharmacy-technician-course |

Not sure why you’d put the work in at UDC to become a real pharmacist when you can walk next door and become a fake pharmacist at Mr. Green with no education and begin to provide healthcare immediately. |

If Big Pharma made the sort of flimsy claims about its products that the pot industry routinely makes about the supposed medicinal benefits of weed, Pfizer, Merck and all the rest of them would be sued into bankruptcy. There is no such thing as "medical marijuana." It's all a lie. Which should evident by the fact that we let anyone "prescribe" it for literally any ailment anyone can think of. |

Marijuana can be used to treat COVID. I think that gives Big Pharma sufficient motivation. |

"A few years ago, the National Academy of Medicine convened a panel of sixteen leading medical experts to analyze the scientific literature on cannabis. The report they prepared, which came out in January of 2017, runs to four hundred and sixty-eight pages. It contains no bombshells or surprises, which perhaps explains why it went largely unnoticed. It simply stated, over and over again, that a drug North Americans have become enthusiastic about remains a mystery. For example, smoking pot is widely supposed to diminish the nausea associated with chemotherapy. But, the panel pointed out, “there are no good-quality randomized trials investigating this option.” We have evidence for marijuana as a treatment for pain, but “very little is known about the efficacy, dose, routes of administration, or side effects of commonly used and commercially available cannabis products in the United States.” The caveats continue. Is it good for epilepsy? “Insufficient evidence.” Tourette’s syndrome? Limited evidence. A.L.S., Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s? Insufficient evidence. Irritable-bowel syndrome? Insufficient evidence. Dementia and glaucoma? Probably not. Anxiety? Maybe. Depression? Probably not. Then come Chapters 5 through 13, the heart of the report, which concern marijuana’s potential risks. The haze of uncertainty continues. Does the use of cannabis increase the likelihood of fatal car accidents? Yes. By how much? Unclear. Does it affect motivation and cognition? Hard to say, but probably. Does it affect employment prospects? Probably. Will it impair academic achievement? Limited evidence. This goes on for pages." https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/01/14/is-marijuana-as-safe-as-we-think |

I went to Giant Sunday morning and there’s nothing quite like your cashier reeking of pot first thing in the morning.
And it must be popular with grocery workers because a few days before that I was at Wegmans and walked by the back room, where they store the groceries, and it was as if they were back there smoking pot. It was very intense. I don’t think I’m extra sensitive to the scent, but I don’t like it so I always notice it. |
