all i got outta that rant was "legalization is bad because it'll put me outta business and then i need to find a new hustle." Before legal weed. It was all illegal. All the strains were bred by criminals. Much of the equipment was designed by criminals. All the laws changed because criminals gave enough of a crap to have people sign petitions and actually change things. If you smoke weed you need to thank a criminal. Now. The same people that were anti cannabis are now getting rich. Most of the people who fought to make it legal are still criminals. In fact all the great strains everyone enjoys were all collected and created by criminals. In my opinion if you are smoking good weed in a legal state you need to either respect the people that made it possible to have good weed. Or go find a cannabis product with absolutely no illegal activity in its history. Because if not for criminals doing what the love to get you high. All the greats strains would not exist. You would all be smoking ditch weed. For real. The entire cannabis culture was build by good people willing to ignore shitty laws. And they are the only reason any of you have ever smoked great weed. Ok

Like you don't even need to read between the lines,just wake up and smell the coffee. It might be hard all the way in Minnesota.
You should worry about moving packs in Minnesota and just quit your day job. Once dispensaries move in and run the scam your customer base doubles.
If weed is anything like a pack of ciggarete tax in New York it's going to be slaying season for us.
Then once I sit in a fat stack I can laugh at the McDonald's mentality of drones filing into dispensaries like they do liquor stores and grocery stores.

Once weed is legal for rec in my area, there is going to be yards full of it. There will be literal weed jungles with avatar people living in there worshiping cannabis Ewya. We won't need any dispensaries

I bet in 5 years it will be legal to go buy buds and extracts made with approved of strains grown by approved of people. All of it will be limited as to cannabinoids and terpenes content. Can anyone say boring buzz and add bullshit flavors. Coorperation will systematically seek out people producing unique and heirloom strains and either have them arrested or ran out of business. I hope I am wrong. Come west with me and cash out. It's about self preservation, fuck ppls access to quality herbs they are they same stupid fucks who go to McDonald's and play fantasy football. They don't care about you. Your buddy who makes diamonds from fresh frozen knows what's up let's follow that blue print. Get MONEY fuck bitches or whatever floats ones boat once they control their monetary flow instead of your shitty fraudulent bank controlling the flow. Maybe die like Pablo Escobar and have somebody write a book.

Honestly part of the problem is most people have never seen good weed. Let alone great weed. So it only makes sense that they will be happy buying mediocre crap weed and candy flavored pens made from moldy ass bullshit.
But from the standpoint of anyone who knows anything about the plant. The market is being taken over by mass produced garbage.

Not surprising in a society based on mass consumption that's traded in a former respect for quality that our grandparents had for plastic disposability.

I'm coming more from the area that businesses shouldn't be on the hook if a kid somehow ends up getting too high or a little kid gets it in an accident. New York has all kinds of laws and lawyers just waiting to test them on some stupid shit. Kids can already get weed. You cannot blame that on anyone but the person who let them get it. Maybe keep it hidden. Just like pothead parents have done all along? Weed is safe. Cops are dangerous. They have actually killed people. So I dont feel safe with police stations. I think we should ban cops and grow weed in there old offices. I know all that. What Im saying is theyre making sure the law protects both parties and wont really allow for frivolous lawsuits. I agree that cops are generally dangerous. I have major problems with law enforcement.

overall I think the pros outweigh the cons when it comes to legalization. call me naïve when it comes to the cannabis business, but I'm well aware the whole cannabis culture and market were founded and created on the black market. you'd have to be an idiot to not realize that.
what it boils down to for me, is the freedom we can have regarding cannabis. we'll be able to grow our own. drive for a cruise and not have to worry about getting arrested because the car smells of weed. not have to worry about the search when going into a venue. smoke a j on the balcony of a hotel and not have to worry about the smell. etc.
I understand there's a few people here who are deeply rooted in the industry, and are concerned about the mom and pop shops. It's like that in every single market though. I still believe as long as you run your operation within the constructs of the laws/regulations set out though, the gov't will have little to say about those shops. Until we see full on legalization we'll never know exactly, other than hearsay by what tayterrr keeps mentioning.

But I dont think you are right. If you actually do the research. Listen to the financial seminars and lawyers and bankers. Pay attention to the already billion dollar industry. They only want one thing. All the money. They will trick voters with temporary rights. You will be left to the right to buy from them. Yes there will still be small farmers. But little chance most of them will be legal. Saw a program with bankers talking about weed. They only want one thing. To know that every last gram is accounted for. The do no want any competition. This will all be obvious soon enough.

what makes cannabis any different than alcohol, in terms of a business model and being regulated? maybe that's a poor comparison, but I feel like its similar in most aspects...

It takes a lot of skill and time to make predictably good booze. I could give you good clone and soil with a few directions and you could have good weed from now on. They know that. This is why distilate is going to be huge. Most small farmers do not want a giant lab filled with explosive pressurised tanks. And they will never get permits. But. Someone with lots of money can grow acres of shitty weed. Distilate to pure thc. Add bullshit flavors and sell back to you. This will be the future for lots of people. A few state already say no flowers. Only extracts. And not just anyone can get a permit to have a lab. People in these states will never be allowed to grow. Do some research. I am not just being paranoid.

I think its good to have the dialogue about this. and the fact that we are I think is a sign we're headed in the right direction overall. I think with legalization the accessibility will be way more prevalent. whether its from your friends grow, your own grow, or a corp dispensary. just having the options available will be nice for the vast majority of the population.
Unless of course if legalization really just means we still can't grow our own and can still get arrested for possession, etc, then what's the point of having it legal at all? Might as well just keep things how they are now then.
