Just saw on my TV direct grid that an hour long program on CNBC is having a one hour talk show on Marijuana, Inc.; its a talks show discussing the politics and business end. Should be interesting. Haven't seen any promos and it took me by surprise so sorry about the late heads up!:sbounce:

Seen it:). It's a little to.. conservative for me, but it isn't too hardcore or anything. If anything, it's a nice check of perspective!

wow any youtube links to this? Sounds intresting

Ya it was on a few weeks ago. Pretty biased and one sided. The one thing I found interesting is how dependent some of these communities are on Marijuana cultivation. Without it, cities like Humboldt would'nt be on the map!

I just dont understand why they talk about marijuana cultivation when in all reality if it wasn't for marijuana alot of people would not be able for afford the houses that they live in right now because of how screwed up our economy is.

Watched it.
It will be reaired so do a search if u want to see it.

I really enjoyed it until about half way in they cut to like an almost separate story of some 1970s dude that was like a kingpin. Really random. If i were to grade it I would say the first half was worth viewing, second half i would say

It's on CNBC again tonight at 10:00 Pacific.

Cant's wait to see it. Last night I watched a good show called EXPLORER on the National Geographic Channel(direct tv 276), the topic was about Marijuana. Was empressed with the gentleman in his MMJ garden. Next showings will be at 3pm SUNDAY Feb. 22 & Wednesday Feb. 25th.

The show on CNBC was hosted by Trish Regan, and the one on NGEO was by CNN's Lisa Ling.
Honestly both of them were slightly informative but for the most part garbage.
They don't talk about how our society is infatuated with intoxication, such as with alcohol. Humans wanting to be intoxicated is probably as old as primates in general.
Why did neither of these documentaries ask the question of why it is okay to get drunk from alcohol and risk overdosing, or killing some via drunk driving, and not get 'drunk' from something in nearly all circumstances a safer way to get intoxicted. Until this stupid double standard is addressed, marijuana prohibition will remain.
Also they should have spoken to more patients who are having to use more harmful medications like opiates, and opioids, and many, many others, that are causing severe side effects.
