Legal to grow and possess illegal to sell

[schuylaar]

already well below that in places.

as always, you are wrong. you never fail at being wrong. you should advertise yourself as always being wrong. companies will hire you for your advice, and do the exact opposite every time.

it's genius actually.

it's never been below $10/gram here..never.

i love it when there is a listeria outbreak and the government does not step in to trace it back to its source and contain the deadly outbreak.

listeria is very dangerous and was once considered one of '10 plagues of the bible'.

actually, all the plagues can be explained away..

because science!

Maybe for your bullshit that you call "quality". What myself and others call quality will never drop below 5 bucks a gram.
You probably consider brickweed quality though.

Plus, I already have a job, WKI. I am not a SPONGE like you.

Its an all around win.

I also think if they went this route, dealers should only be fined and the fine based off how much they were selling. Not off what they grew, but the sale that got the busted.

Police wouldn't really bother with busting them unless they were massive dealers but in all honesty, the market for weed would vanish anyway.

Cops get the same number of brownie points off small dealers as they do big dealers, so don't think being a small dealer gives you immunity. Most people are to lazy to grow their own. We call them "stoners"

 

[mollymcgrammar]

So nobody that gets busted for selling is ever ratted out by a "trusted" person or a person that is threatened by police to reveal his source eh?

You are advocating laws which allow government to artificially manipulate and influence free trade as well as condoning an unnaturally influenced price structure... why am I not surprised ? Your plan sounds like a "jobs program" for cops, jailers, bureaucrats, lawyers and other parasites that cling to the nanny state.

Your hope is to use the gun of government to improve your lot, which is a bad policy and ends up creating unintended consequences.


Government should butt the fuck out of weed, period. Should potatoes also be legal to grow and illegal to sell? Tomatoes? Which other forms of government protectionism will you endorse Prohibitionist?

Here is my reasoning.... Why would someone rat on the dealer if they got busted? You can't get busted for something thats legal. The only way to get caught would be to literally have a sale interrupted.

It would allow the market to regulate itself, and stop companies that make a mockery of the weed industry by force feeding us bullshit. Look at tobacco... Anyone can grow it, its a plant.... But go ahead and try to start a cigg company and see how difficult the corporate goons have made it. Id rather see herb be freely given and available for all than allow scumbags to turn it in to a cash crop and lobby to make it harder for others to succeed. Food, water, and medicine should be available for all.

You are such a liar, quote me ONE TIME calling you that.
In fact I call you a BIGOT, RACIST, the exact opposite of that terrible word YOU USE AT EVERY POSSIBLE CHANCE.

You are nothing but a disgusting racist.

Don't mind uncle buck.... His communist and socialist ideologies make it hard for him to defend his position without resorting to just bashing anyone he disagrees with rather than debating like a normal person or just agreeing that there is more than one way of thinking.

 

[GrowUrOwnDank]

It never Will vanish. However it will be practically free.

It's a FUCKING weed. What's the price for a pound of dandelions?

Best post I've seen in a minute. It's just fucking weed. Take away the illegality and stigma and you're left with dandelions. Freeking awesomeness.

 

[GrowUrOwnDank]

Get busy showing me ONE QUOTE saying ALL the problems are caused by black people you racist, bigot WKI.
You are so scared of minorities and so racist you won't even speak to a minority you low-life disgusting racist.
Prove you are not a racist, show a picture of ONE minority in your house over the next week. Show us you are not a bigot, you racist.

You love the N word, you are disgusting racist.

You're just trying to be @UncleBuck sock puppet. So sad. I will still be your friend and help you thru this. Sadness sucks.......

here ya go, princess.

Maybe if they had gone through what the south has gone through they would be much more sensitive to racial issues.
You do realize the largest black populations are in the south? Places like Atlanta and Memphis are predominantly black. So when you toss out the south as your example you are really showing a very limited view of what you know about the south.

I see what you are doing here, and I find it very racist.
Basically you are listing the states with the highest percentage of black people.
Interesting how you twisted that...

want some of the rest of your racist replies?

[fandango]

LEO cut them all down...but only found 5 empty sleeping bags on site

 

[fandango]

Well below 5 bucks...trim=.27gram...pot and soil .10gram...price wholesale 2.23gram-3.57 per gram.
Taking orders here...

 

[ChesusRice]

nothing would stop anyone from selling a pen for 20 bucks that comes with a free bag of weed

Seriously Look how Arizona law has forbid growing personal anywhere within a 25 miles of a dispensary

That's because the AZ-hole state is run by republicans who feel that pot profits need to be protected from the free market... even though they'll scream long and loud about believing the opposite. Don't listen. Just watch...

People tried doing that here, before scalping was legal, with sports tickets. They would still get arrested for scalping.

 

[kelly4]

Cheesy, your idea reminds me of Hillary Clinton. It started with no steam and kept slowing down.

Complete and total fail.

 

[Mindmelted]

it's never been below $10/gram here..never.

Bullshit !

 

[mollymcgrammar]

Bullshit !

Why is that bullshit? Ive never seen it under 10$ a gram either. Unless you mean when buying weight in which case ive seen dirt weed go for 50 a half O. The good shit is still about 275-400 an O depending on who you know and whats around.

I don't mind Uncle Buck, I understand he's institutionalized and since they've taken his crayons away and don't allow gerbils he gets very bored. Besides, I know he likes me and just wants my attention. Thank you for the heads up though.

Now onto your comment.

People "cooperate" with police for a variety of reasons, fear, promise of a more lenient sentence, revenge, maybe the person sold to IS a cop. To say nobody would ever be punished for something that they could be punished for is like asking Uncle Buck to walk by a freshly washed floor without leaving his calling card.

Also, you are 100% wrong on how a truly free market is regulated. The existence of a legislatively included prohibition (no sales) has already ensured that a truly free market CAN'T exist.

I understand you don't want the "big boys" to ruin it for the small time growers, but what you are asking for is to make a form of prohibition (no selling) somehow work to ensure there is a free market, which is oxymoronic. A good bit of the regulation that usually occurs in a free market is enabled by the unimpeded relationship between a willing set of sellers and buyers. By artificially restricting the potential supply, you artificially stifle what the real price would be.

In other words, the plan you are endorsing hurts the consumer, and uses prohibition to do it.

The root of the problem IS prohibition, it can't be solved by selectively applying prohibition. That's just using force to reassign who gets the BENEFITS of prohibition.

A corporation is a government construct, so is prohibition, careful what you wish for.
