Legal cannabis market trained entire generation to judge a product by one figure.
Shorthand for strength, quality & value. Higher number, better weed, bigger high.
Simple. Except science keeps saying it isn't simple. Twice the THC, not twice the high.

How can THC be classified under two different drug schedules?
Dr. David B. Allen, MD, exposes a glaring contradiction in federal cannabis policy: cannabis has been classified as Schedule I, while FDA-approved medications containing THC are classified under Schedule III.
If THC has recognized medical uses, why is the cannabis plant treated differently?
In his testimony, Dr. Allen challenges the scientific and legal foundations of cannabis prohibition and makes the case for removing cannabis from the Controlled Substances Act entirely.
Cannabis doesn't need another schedule. It needs to be DESCHEDULED.
