    The big win from schedule 3 is ability for American researchers to study it legally and easily, on-shore. Obviously it doesn’t belong in the list with those other schedule 3s (ketamine and suboxone), but it is gonna be baby steps towards legalization so long as the powerful alcohol and private prison lobbies exist.

      My fiancé studies cannabis in Canada, and making it legal didn’t really make it easier to study. Hopefully FDA makes it less of a nightmare than health canada did.

        Even when it was illegal here, it was significantly less illegal than in the states; scientific and medical studies would have already been allowed.
