The Federal Government Awards Ole Miss With $69 Million Towards Marijuana Research

It may come as a surprise to some, but the federal government has been quietly growing medical marijuana since 1968. With marijuana still illegal on a federal level the question that rises is, how the federal government cultivates and has a patent for medical marijuana while staying in compliance with their own rules and regulations? Part of that answer would be that the federal government is against medicinal cannabis with everybody else with the exception of themselves.
However, recently the government approved a budget for the University of Mississippi awarding almost 70 million dollars to cultivate and research marijuana.
The contract that was awarded Monday by the National Institute of Health will go towards the marijuana research lab at the University of Mississippi. Ole Miss
Has been the catalyst for producing federally legal cannabis since 1968.
This project is expected to involve the cultivation of 30,000 plants stated from an article in the Los Angeles Times.
Now I know what many are thinking, how can the government own a medical cannabis patent for a product they are still doing their homework on, however they still do not allow the use of marijuana without the federal governments consent.
If in fact the federal government were truly convinced that cannabis has no medical purpose, which is how marijuana is currently, viewed by the federal government they would not be involved in cultivating and profiting from the research at Ole Miss. We can only hope that the federal government soon identifies that the medical value of marijuana hold great merit amongst the world of modern medicine.
