Because cannabis is funding the traitors. There's a reason why the first state to legalize it was California and the money that poured in went where? Into whose pockets? A human brain doesn't finish developing until 25 and cannabis stunts its development before then. I'm not arguing your point about liberty or medicinal values, but there's a hell of a lot more to it than just "legalize it, it's just a plant."
OP asked why there is no research put into cannabis since it may turn out to be a natural cure for many issues. It's a good question. Tons of money is put into pharmaceutical research, just none for a plant that can be obtained for free. Plenty of pharmaceuticals haven't been tested on children yet it's perfectly legal to prescribe them. I would venture to say cannabis does far less damage than Ritalin to a developing brain. Research sure would be nice to prove or disprove that theory.
You DO Realize that Trump admin has OPENNED UP HEMP PRODUCTION, and that pot is now legally available in well more than half the states. As noted by others, Federal marijuana LEGALIZATION is probably NOT part of the Swamp Clearing Plan.
But the framework will be there, when the time is right.
BTW: OP should paste even the SLIGHTEST Sauce for his original claims about pot safety. Any would be helpful if he has a true point.

Because "drugs are bad, mmmkay?"
You're asking the conservative right to drop their war on drugs, anti-drug bias and propaganda (some of these idiots use their religion to accuse drug use of being "witchcraft" ffs).
