TAKE TWO IN THE MORNING AND TRY TO CALL ME

Medical marijuana is becoming more and more accepted in the mainstream as
anecdotal evidence of its beneficence changes public opinions ("Dr.
Feelgood," 3/23). This raises an interesting question--who decides what is
and isn't medicine? The answer is, politicians decide. The ugliness of that
observation needs to be driven home. Doctors ought to be the proper
authorities in deciding what is and isn't medicine. America, after
separating church and state, has turned into a police state that persecutes
people for using the wrong medicines. The marriage of medicine and state
has not done the world any good. Separation of medicine and state will put
the authority to decide what is and isn't medicine back to where it
belongs, with the individual.
