Letter: Medicinal marijuana is not the answer to our health problems
By Tim Smith | Oct. 15, 2013While medical marijuana undoubtedly holds promise as a means to treat a number of legitimate medical conditions, that alone is not a sufficient standard to merit its usage as a medicine.

Rather, it ought to be made through the appropriate regulatory processes within the Food and Drug Administration, as all other decisions regarding medicinal approval are made.
