The Corporations lobbying against Marijuana legalization are just too strong. The Pharmaceutical Corporations stand to lose MILLIONS, maybe even BILLIONS, if Marijuana were legalized by the Federal Government. And they aren't the only Corporations who would suffer. The Alcohol Corporations, Logging/Cotton/Paper Corporations, Tobacco Corporations... all spend MILLIONS lobbying against the legalization of Marijuana every year. There's a reason that a relatively harmless plant is still treated like Heroin by the Federal Government, and it has nothing to do with science or facts.
