    *descheduled entirely

    There’s no reason for this to be on the list at all, it’s less harmful than beer and has actual medical uses. Alcohol has practically no medical use, kills thousands every year and leaves thousands more with life long debilitating health problems, but it’s not even a controlled substance.

      Prescription medications are scheduled. So medical uses isn’t a reason to not schedule something.

      Alcohol and tabacco were specifically excluded from the CSA. I’m pretty sure we’d need an act of congress to actually deschedule anything.

          Alcohol makes more babies to keep the labor flowing so rich people can keep getting richer. Don’t abort it, that’s against religion. Just keep it alive until it can work. This is my tinfoil hat theory.
