I just blogged concerning the inadvisability of legalizing Recreational Marijuana, because of all the terrible side-effects. I suggested that the Pharmaceutical Companies be give a Green Flag to develop Recreational Drugs. Then it occurred to me that the Pharmaceutical Companies have been largely quiet on the issue.
why aren't they pushing to be allowed to develop a 'Better Pot'... a Safer Ecstacy... so on an so forth?
why such reticence?
Oh... in America they could be threatened by the FDA.... if they push for legalized Recreational Drugs then the FDA can refuse to approve or drag their feet on all of the drugs already in the Approval Pipeline. But what stops the European Pharmaceutical Companies... except that they probably need the same FDA Approvals before they can distribute Drugs in Big Market America.
It appears that the FDA has a Political Mind of its own. Agencies really need to stay out of Politics.
