Its an interesting thing to see the clash between state and feds. I was
just reading the ABA Journal and noted with some interest the fact that
pot growers and pot dispensaries are unable to take advantage federal
bankruptcy protection because, under federal law, these "professions"
are not valid professions that are eligible for federal bankruptcy
protection or reorganization.

I haven't dug too deeply, but in the few states I have looked up laws and
the people I often work with (law makers) tell me, Fed trumps state.
I spoke with a person recently who has a legitimate medical issue and has
fought it for years taken more hideous "medication" than you can imagine,
the docs suggested weed. It's legal in the state that person lives in
however, none of the paperwork arrived in the mail. Research indicated NO
paperwork arrives in the mail, even though the policy is to not hand it out
in a state office. Why not? USPS is controlled by the feds and pot is
illegal at the federal level, the feds won't use their system to assist in
illegal drug dispensing.
