I Hate the Governator (Part II)

From American's for Safe Access' blog:

"In a terse statement, the Governor said that employment protection was not the voters’ goal when they approved Proposition 215 in 1996."

While it is a known fact that the authors of the bill intended for employment protections to be part of it, we can be reasonably sure that the voters of California, approving medical marijuana usage, did not intend for the state's patients to be uniformly put out on the street. The choice between one's medicine and employment is a losing choice all around--for the patients themselves and for the populace generally which will shoulder the burden of increased unemployment and the claims on the system it entails.
