3,888 Views: "How Weed Won the West" is the story of the growing Medical Cannabis "Must See"
A film by Kevin Booth:
While California is going bankrupt, one business is booming. "How Weed Won the West" is the story of the growing medical cannabis / marijuana industry in the greater Los Angeles area, with over 700 dispensaries doling out the buds. As a treatment for conditions ranging from cancer and AIDS, to anxiety, ADHD, and insomnia, cannabis is quickly proving itself as a healthier natural alternative to many prescription drugs.
Following the story of Organica, a southland dispensary which was raided by state and federal agencies in August of 2009, the film shows that although much has changed with Obama in office, the drug war is nowhere near over. From Kevin Booth, the producer/director of Showtime's "American Drug War", "How Weed Won the West" puts California forward as an example to the rest of the country by documenting how legalizing marijuana can help save the economy.

The most important plant for humans, not 1 human being has EVER died, or has even suffered ill side-effects from marijuana use.

There will still be work for growers, except the work will be legal. The government in Canada was looking for growers to work for them growing medical marijuana not too long ago. There needs to be something done, but it wont happen with the biggest drug dealers being the government themselves. Like many other issues, we need to stand together. Because if we stand together, then together we stand free!
