That was a very well produced and informative piece.

Sad, those people who died in pain or took their lives partly (or mostly, depending on your outlook) because of the inhumane treatment those kids got in "rehab".

The bit about the old guy with bone cancer got me.

summary for those that didnt watch

Old guy has bone cancer

His doctor has been prescribing marijuana for chemo and pain in a state where its legal to do so

Feds bust doctor for writing prescriptions not for medical use ect ect he loses his license to practice

Old guys insurance company calls old guy and tells him he cant have the life saving surgery he had scheduled

Family sorts out the proper paperwork allowing old guy to get his surgery

Insurance company reply's 6 weeks later

Old guy died weeks before

Not really.

The first season was indeed, pure gold, all episodes were master pieces, then they had to milk the cow and season two came out with some good topic as well as some plain stupid topics, but in my opinion they lost credibility when they did one episode defending wal-mart, after that i've seen a few other episodes, none have amazed me and some almost made me puke because IMO they sold out.

But thats just me, season one its worth buying though...

Check out seasons 7 and 8 they did slow down a bit in the middle but I've loved them since way before bullshit came out so my bias got me through.
