Fix the Symptom or Fix the Problem

Politicians Continually Confuse a Symptom with a Problem

The debate over the medical marijuana Amendment 2 ignores the fact that a medical doctor must determine if a patient is qualified for the "prescription". All prescriptions for all drugs are the responsibility of the doctor. If the concern is doctor shopping or doctor's qualifying a patient for the mundane hangnail, that is a separate issue. 

As usual, the Corporate Politicians ruining our country confuse a symptom with a problem. Trying to fix the symptom is not the same as trying fix the problem.
Example: 

• The Symptom: Your leg hurts
• Our Politicians suggest to fix it with a pain reliever
• The Problem:   You fell out of a tree and broke you leg
