CBD is a non-psychoactive compound in marijuana that shows promise in epilepsy and pain therapy, so the DEA wants to class it with heroin

It’s 1000% big Pharma wanting to eradicate competition to their opiates

That isn’t 1000% accurate. Big Pharma can still make a shit ton of money off of CBD. Did you notice that there are currently Phase III trials of CBD?
Particularly if they can use CBD to treat a very specific disease, then they get all kinds of nice perks.

I am sure that Big Pharma is partly behind the resistance to medical marijuana, but at this point the fight is beyond even their lobbying. This is clearly in the realm of the ideological.

Money can convince a man to cut himself, but only beliefs can convince a man to kill himself!
