Cannabis is currently classified under Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act, the most tightly restricted category reserved for drugs which have "no currently accepted medical use". Rescheduling proponents argue that cannabis does not meet the Controlled Substances Act's strict criteria for placement in Schedule I, and therefore the government is required by law either to permit medical use or to remove the drug from federal control altogether. It is ridiculous that the flower of a plant is considered worse for you then cocaine by the government. Also, how can someone be "addicted" to marijuana if there are no physical or psychological withdrawals. I am a medical marijuana patient and i NEED my medicine i most likely would not be alive today if not for cannabis
