What I find interesting is the fact that the State claims their marijuana laws exist for medical purposes yet the derivatives of the marijuana plant necessary to create legitimate medications - on a a practical level - are currently out of reach to the card holders. So in essence what the state has done is to create a system that does not legally allow for the practical application of medicinal purposes but rather promotes the getting high aspect while polluting the card holders lungs with unnecessary pollutants.
Since the State never bothered to allow for a legislative route that allowed for practical medication development, production and distribution, it has in fact thwarted the legitimate medicinal aspects of the plant. Currently anyone engaged in creating such products who sells them or shares them is breaking the Hawaii statutes. Those who do break the statues in that regard are practicing a legitimate enterprise in my opinion as the state laws are ass backwards IMO. Now the State wants to extort money out of those people via over priced permits and applications to become legal.
