How Big Pharma and the Government are trying to forbid use the natural resources of Kratom and Marijuana

I use Kratom and am having the same problems. Some states okay it. It's from a leaf from the tobacco plant. Actually you would think the Government would approve it as it does help people get off opiates. And Opiates is what the government is trying to ban since so many patients are on it. Medical Marijuana could be another option for me. Hello, my name is Pamel and I live in Chronic Pain daily and am allergic to Morphine and Tylenol. along with many more pain meds. People like me who live with Chronic Pain and PTSD (3 abusive husbands) need something for the pain without getting hooked on it. Why not use the plants that God put here for our use instead of all those Opiates the Government wants off the market? The plants are natural and don't put all those horrible chemicals in them. Please go to the links below and read a Vet's story of needing Medical Marijuana.

It's more than likely the fact that the Big Pharma and Government can't make money out of others. However, some states like Colorado has found a way. And they are benefiting greatly, There are problems like the promise to give money for education and teachers are so small.  However, the State is making money and people aren't suffering much there. Read these link on both Marijuana and Kratom.

It's not actually giving anything to the Education or Teachers. It needs to give more then 2%.

How the FDA is trying to get Kratom not available. Years ago they said the same about Marijuana and now finally some states sell Medical Marijuana.

For The Veterans Of Vietnam:

A Tribute To You

UNSEEN HERO

He sat bedraggled, his look forlorn
His hair damp, straggly and long
The coat upon his frame threadbare
People passed, dismissing him with scorn
As he sat, cup in hand amid the throng
Nobody really saw this man in the wheelchair.

His coat was his cloak of true honor
In which they should have stopped, paid tribute
For he fought for their lives, their freedoms
When he got home, there were no drums
Everywhere he went, he got the boot
His camouflage, a tattletale of the war's horror.

No help from Veteran Affairs, not enough anyways
Discarded like garbage, this man who fought overseas
Unwanted by his own countrymen, like a disease
He watches as people seemingly hurry on by
Turning a deaf ear, as he chants "a few coins please"
This unseen hero who gave his legs, who was willing to die.
