MEDICAL MARIJUANA, GROW IT ON VACANT LOTS IN CITY
We are a tourist city and our city needs help. Why not use one of the
many vacant lots in downtown Palm Springs as a site for growing
medical marijuana?
A display like that would be an incredible tourist attraction. Under
state law medical marijuana is legal and no longer of interest to the
federal government. If someone complains just tell them it's legal and
to get over it. Security would be a requirement.
The tourists will love it, the sick will get their medicine, the city
will reap much needed money from the increase in tax revenue from the
tourists, the interest from the news media will bring in worldwide
free publicity for the city, also increasing our business.
Most importantly, sick people in other places will learn that
inexpensive medicine is available for their needs.
With more than 1 million Americans having smoked marijuana in our
nation, including our last three presidents, this shouldn't be a problem.
