3. There is no minor pain of arthritis as some ads say.

I have yet to see a survey that identifies people who are in pain with the only thing that will help them is hydrocodone. These people generally have kidney problems and cannot take anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen etc.
I fall into that category. There are days my pain is so bad I can do nothing. It's tough. Not looking for sympathy, just afraid the people who really need a painkiller because of real pain not because of mental issues or addiction will be left out in the cold.
That's the main reason marijuana should be legalized.
