MEDICAL MARIJUANA CAN'T MAKE MONEY?

I find it interesting that San Francisco's U.S. attorney Melinda Haag
is offended that "people are using the cover of medical marijuana to
make extraordinary amounts of money" ("Feds urged to ease up on
medical pot," Oct. 26).

Exchange the words medical marijuana for the words oil,
pharmaceuticals or Wall Street, and the message is apparent. It's not
OK for average people to accumulate wealth - that freedom should only
be for the rich. Makes one wonder if that is why the feds are going
after legal marijuana sales.
