1) Depends on what your employer bans drug use for. In my job, I cannot use marijuana 24 hrs before working, Rx or not. Some employers have stricter rules. I don't see how an employer can differentiate between Rx and recreational for a legal product. It would be like saying, you can't come to work drunk, unless you have a prescription for Captain Morgan... then its OK.
4) If you admit to using marijuana, even prescription, you may be banned (for life) from entering the USA. CBP enforces Federal Laws. Under Federal law, marijuana is an illegal drug. Doesn't matter what individual states say. These has led to problems with legal dispensaries having bank accounts seized (Federal banking laws) and the concern of filing taxes for an illegal product.
As for acronyms, they broke the mold with the hilariously named Caution Against Racially Exploitive Non-Emergencies Act (CAREN) for those making racially based 911 calls falsely.

1) I'm not sure of the employment laws here, but anywhere that has protection of medical discrimination, but otherwise at will employment it's perfectly reasonable that an employer may choose not to employ someone who does a legal but recreational drug, but would be unable to discriminate against someone with a prescription.
