How much do you know about marijuana?

[velvetfog]

By early 2014, some 20 US states and the District of Columbia had legalized the use of marijuana for medical purposes.
In Nov. 2012, voters in Washington and Colorado passed initiatives to make their states the first in the country to allow recreational use of the drug.
But under federal law, the sale of cannabis remains illegal.
And the US Food and Drug Administration states that marijuana has "no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States."

most of the questions were about the U.S. and not about the plant.

the christian science monitor is infamous for mining information from the visitors to their site under false pretenses (most notably by referring to their 'surveys' as 'quizzes') and then using that information to advance their own agendas.

the information from this 'quiz' will most likely be used to advance the interests of the candidates representing their special interest group in the upcoming elections...

Me too. I just don't know much about it. Even if I used it, I probably would score low. I agree, not too many were posed about the plant itself, but still educational.

I can see it. Most people don't care about the history of it, they just want the drug. For another example, I tried telling my wife that Henry Ford was a Nazi sympathizer, that had his own newspaper against the Jews, but she didn't care about that, she just wanted to drive the car...

I took the test again, using my first responses as answers to the questions (to keep it fair). I failed miserably....I only got 30% correct...

Because of the reasons they stated. I looked at the test and had the same feelings. There is very little about the plant and much more about the history of the plant in the US.

It is a stupid test.
