Cannabinoid medicine if fully exploited could ultimately save the US $1 trillion a year. We should all be saying this. I’ll give you two diseases to start:
Cancer at $85 bn a year. About 2/3rds of diabetes at $115 bn a year. I’m sure I could find another $800 bn if I went through the whole list.

I’m assuming that your numbers exclude the costs of prohibition, both direct and indirect. That adds up to tens of billions annually as well.
Randy,
Yes. But $100 bn is not near enough to change Prohibitionist attitudes.
At $1 trillion they start to take notice. Ir is real money.
