Marijuana reformers score a big hit

I started blogging a little over 6 years ago specifically to advocate for reform of our outdated marijuana laws. Given the growing public sentiment for change, I expected we would eventually succeed, but I didn't anticipate that Apple would facilitate pot purchases.

With a dozen states having legalized/decriminalized medical marijuana, and new proposals pending elsewhere, Apple approved a new app for its iPhone that allows the user to locate a doctor who can write a prescription, find a provider for the herb and find a lawyer in case you get in trouble for using it. A small portion of the fee will be reallocated to marijuana law reform orgs. Now that's my kind of capitalism.
