This is California politics at it's best, or rather, worst. The citizens vote on a very simple law to legalize cannabis for medicine, and now we get these idiots in Sacramento trying to complicate things and register people. Typical of this state to want to regulate everything we do. What happened to doctor/patient confidentiality? Who is going to run this regulatory agency, and how much is it going to cost??? If we could only elect some REAL people, we could keep simple laws like prop. 215 simple!! Once again, we have politicians who think that only they know what is best for us.
