“I think it’s clear by now that the federal government needs to reclassify marijuana. People who need it should be able to get it – safely and easily,” says The Price Is Right and Power of 10 host Drew Carey in a new Reason.tv video examining medical marijuana and the war on drugs.

One of the most outrageous consequences of the war on drugs is the federal crackdown on medical marijuana, which is used by patients to help treat the effects of cancer, glaucoma, HIV-AIDS, chronic pain and nausea, and other severe symptoms associated with serious illnesses. Medical marijuana prescribed by a physician is legal in 12 states, yet federal agents are raiding state-approved dispensaries and preventing patients from having safe access to this drug.

In Episode 2 of Reason.tv's Drew Carey Project, Drew takes a look at patients who need and use medical marijuana in California, and how the federal government is making their lives even worse.

Thanks Drew. I'm not a Marine but I am a Army combat vet who uses MM for glaucoma. The VA stopped treating me for PTSD because of it.
My stress is back and thanks to the VA's lack of care and understanding of their own policies. the abuse continues. I have not had any PTSD medication in 5 months because of it. I have a disability rating of 100%. I am also the creator of The Real Decoy, film & toy project, another fact the VA denies. anyone who wants more info can call me at (360)597-4720 thanx again Drew
best wishes Steve Androff (US Army (Ret.)

I love the way Drew Carey spoke on MMA, and showed the store and that its ok to be stand offish. The people who smoke it are not crazy animals! We are normal humane beings too! And I agree that prescription drugs are being abused and I know this from my own experience of morphines out there in the market of doctors painkillers.
