The question of whether or not to consider marijuana a viable medical treatment remains a hot button issue. In states like California, medical marijuana clubs have flourished despite their federal illegality. Should the federal government allow states to make their own decisions, or is marijuana nothing more than a dangerous narcotic? <br/><br/> Experts on the "Yes" side: <ul> <li>National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws</li> <li>Marijuana Policy Project</li> <li>Americans for Safe Access</li> </ul> Experts on the "No" side: <ul> <li>Drug Free America Foundation</li> <li>Dr. Eric Voth</li> </ul> Sat, 21 Mar 2009 01:24:21 -0500 http://www.opposingviews.com/questions/should-medical-marijuana-be-federally-legalized http://www.opposingviews.com/questions/are-generic-drugs-as-effective-as-name-brands Sick and tired of high drug costs? You're not alone. Americans spend more than 150 billion dollars per year on pharmaceuticals, and with costs rising all the time, many are looking to generic alternatives. These products promise the same benefits as their name-brand equivalents, but at a fraction of the cost. When considering something as important as your personal health, do generic drugs measure up? <br/><br/> Experts on the "Yes" side: <ul> <li>Generic Pharmaceutical Association</li> <li>Consumers Union</li> <li>American Society of Health System Pharmacists</li> </ul> Experts on the "No" side: <ul> <li>ConsumerLab</li> <li>Peter Kowey, MD</li> </ul> Wed, 05 Nov 2008 11:20:19 -0600 http://www.opposingviews.com/questions/are-generic-drugs-as-effective-as-name-brands
