I guess I just assumed as a prescription drug, that medical marijuana should have been exempt. doesn't seem right to charge tax for people that have legitimate medical reasons for using.

This also gives insurance companies even more reason to not provide coverage for medical cannabis. Makes no sense why anyone currently prescribed cannabis should see an increase just because people will also be able to use it recreationally.
