I was on Fentanyl and other opioids from 2001 to 2015. 100mg fentanyl every three days , then OxyContin for breakthrough pain, plus tons of Soma . At one time I felt so lost and alone thinking this was my fate until I died . The medical community was no help, they're the ones that got me addicted in the first place . Then by chance I met some alternative healthcare providers. I weened myself off opioids by using medical marijuana and a more holistic approach to my healthcare. I've had numerous surgeries since then, and while they did use fentanyl during each surgery, I've never had cravings for it. In fact the idea of using it again repulses me. As for pain relief now I take Tylenol ( I can only take Tylenol due to heart issues and blood thinning ) and lot's of weed . My surgeons are amazed at my pain control after each surgery . I have noticed I get better effects with edibles in the AM, but I vape and dab during the day for breakthrough pain. It took me about two years to get my bodily functions back to normalStudy Shows Marijuana Is ‘Significantly Associated’ With Reduced Use Of Unregulated Opioids

More Americans are getting lit. Half of U.S. residents say they have tried marijuana and 17% currently smoke weed — both new highs, a new Gallup poll released Thursday revealed.

Hint; They use science and math and stuff, so it may seem complicated.
A ways down in that article it says that the pharmaceutical industry takes an average market loss of 10 billion dollars every time a state legalizes weed. I guess we know where the anti-weed money is coming from.States With Legal Medical Marijuana See ‘Significant And Sizable’ Reductions In Health Insurance Premiums, Study Finds

Yep! I knew it!
Good!
True capitalists at heart, our elected leaders never miss an opportunity to sell us out.
I remember back in the 1990s there were loads of breathless articles about "Today's cannabis is not your Mom's grass!!" And back then the old timers told me they heard that going into the dorms in the 70s.
I would say "Access" is the key part of that. Many places still have shitty cannabis, but Humboldt County has had plenty of potency for all of my life.

Interesting article. Still a buyer's market here in Ok. Several local dispensaries closed recently, including my overall favorite. I also noticed that a lot of black market growers have been shut down, so the total number of growers is down from 8k to 6k at present. It's still a booming industry. The 15% tax rate is low, as are weed prices, but legal medical tax revenue was ~$67M this past year. Oddly I heard an OBN officer on the news say Ok's ~6k growers produce an estimated 20-30x what is sold legally in Ok dispensaries.America's once-booming weed industry 'verges on collapse'
Currently, the recreational use of cannabis is legal in 23 states, and last year state-regulated medical and recreational pot sales topped $26 billion nationwide, according to Vangst.www.dailymail.co.uk
It's mind boggling if you back calculate the numbers, higher still if you assume bootleg prices in tyrannically regulated states. I'm just saying, you got your winners, and you got your losers......
