DEA Approves Synthetic Cannabis for Pharma Co. That Paid $500K to Keep REAL Weed Illegal

After it waged a veritable war against cannabis legalization in Arizona, coughing up half a million dollars for the campaign, pharmaceutical company Insys Therapeutics recently announced its ultimate victory has finally come to fruition: the DEA has approved one of the company’s groundbreaking pharmaceuticals — synthetic marijuana — to be listed as a Schedule II substance.

“Insys gave $500,000 last summer to Arizonans for Responsible Drug Policy, the group opposing marijuana legalization in Arizona,” the Washington Post reported“The donation amounted to roughly 10 percent of all money raised by the group in an ultimately successful campaign against legalization.Insys was the only pharmaceutical company known to be giving money to oppose legalization last year, according to a Washington Post analysis of campaign finance records.”

That flood of cash from the pharmaceutical company with a vested interest in killing legalization probably did just that.
