If there is anyone lobbying against MMJ use is BIG PHARMA. They'd rather see you purchase their pain pills, get addicted in the process, develop liver damage as a result of abuse, develop a health sequelae as a result of liver damage like for example elevated cholesterol, which in turn may cause you over time to have a heart attack.
