the american medical association of posed marijuana -- the marijuana tax act because it was going to make it highly burdensome for medical professionals to be able to use medicine for their patients. and in particular, the tax is imposed on the physicians and pharmacists and the cultivators that were being able to grow the supply market for patients in need of cannabis as a medicine. we have an important please of history we have to contend with at the local level because the first narrow one at tax act arrest takes place in denver, colorado. he is charged with possession and samuel caldwell is charged with dealing and they are in violation of the marijuana tax act. part of what the act imposes is if you wanted to be in possession of marijuana, you had to petition the government for a tax stamp to be able to be in possession of that. i am not in violation of the law. however, the problem was in order to acquire it come you had to present the cannabis you are trying to acquire. and it becomes an issue for how this law is intended to really stop access to cannabis as a medicine. in term

one thing to remember is that this is a moment that the american medical association and the profession of medicine is starting to become more and more heavily professionalized. so we look to the medical community to weigh-in with suggestions for how to best navigate, control access to this this substance, opium, and a whole range of other narcotics to be able to have it available for medicinal use but also try to limit access of this substance in a nonmedicinal use. so what it did was it specially regulated and taxed opium and cocoa products. the reason why this is important, is because, as you will see, in a few decades, it becomes sort of a metric to be able to launch future drug policies in the u.s. so now that we are talking about limiting medical access and also really trying to quell any sort of access to nonmedical use, the u.s. initiates the narcotics drugs import and export act of 1922. and this creates the policy for oversight for the opium trade and opium consumption. and this is because we do not have the ability to produce opia and cocoa products in the u.s. these are plan
