I will say that I have not been a supporter of medicinal marijuana, but I am open to researching the merits of it as a medicine. If you have any data from studies that have been conducted I will certainly look them over.

One of my greatest concerns is the use of medicinal marijuana by individuals within the work place. There is a clear mind/mood altering affect on users of marijuana. I would not want someone working next to me that has been drinking alcohol any more than someone who has smoked marijuana. As a business owner the safety of our staff is paramount and I am not comfortable with employees entering the workplace with reduced faculties.

Sincerely,
