Word Count: 863
Price: US$26.90

Speech Abstract

A speech which challenges governments to adopt a reformist approach to the legalization of marijuana for medical purposes.  The speech looks at evidence of the benefits marijuana delivers in the relieving of pain and nausea and juxtapositions the reasonably benign deleterious impacts of marijuana as against far more powerful drugs on our doctors' prescription lists.  (As with all Speechforyou.com persuasive speeches the views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of the company and are made available for academic public speaking and debating purposes only.)
