well i think it differs on who u ask. but in my humble opinion its going good but could be better. stats are passing medical marijuana laws (even states in the bible belt are trying), North Dakota voted to grow hemp with a few more states to follow. Then you have the power of the Internet that people can use to research facts from fiction. Which to me without the Internet it probably wouldn't be where it is today. i say in another 5 yrs maybe less we will be able to at-least have doctors prescribe it. And if were lucky just maybe be able to go in stores and buy it and show its not a gateway drug the gov says it is.
