So its all or nothing for you, is that it? Abolish all laws or don't change anything even if an obvious incremental change will correct a glaring problem.
So, you say there should be no government. No regulation, no interference with a person's desire to do whatever they want.
Any person that coerces or otherwise interferes with free action by another is prevented how? By defensive force if I understand you correctly. What if that defensive force is met with a greater offensive force? Maybe that sexual predator just hides and waits for you to come out in the open then fires his sniper rifle. You can't defend yourself or your family if you get a bullet in the brain. So then what? The predator can then drive off with your daughter? Is that the glorious world you want?
If its illegal, the law will be enforced. This isn't Spain. There wont be farmers markets or clubs unless its legal to sell.

There is a hullabaloo posted here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/garden-ripped-out-in-norcal.882055/
People were surprised to find they were illegally growing in Butte County CA. Presumably they grew before and nobody cared. I know its growing and not selling but my point is that enforcement can change at the whim of a few officials. One year nothing the next year a department needs cash and boom! All of a sudden what you were doing openly becomes a huge fine and legal hassles. If its illegal to grow or sell then never assume its OK, even if the enforcement is lax. To me, this goes for Oregon where the state allows but the feds are only agreeing to not do anything. IF I were growing, I wouldn't tell anybody or grow outdoors, even in Oregon. IF I were selling in Spain, I wouldn't trust the cover of a club to protect me.
I know...paranoid, but then again, I've managed to stay out of jail.
And, Roy, this doesn't make me a slave, no matter how loudly you proclaim it.

How would they prove you are selling?

You don't sell, you charge a subscription and give people free weed.

Or you sell something that comes with free weed.

How do they prove you are selling now? They get an informant and they videotape the buy.
Is this rocket science?

Nah, that's technically selling Afaik.
It's a "club subscription" you pay and you get free weed and a lighter (read: some other random cheap knick knack).
You're paying for membership of a club, not a product with free weed.

Is that why the dealers nicknamed the new Washington DC law "the dealer protection act"?
A guy like you would be stupid enough to get caught. When it is Legal to possess

Same as they do now, I suppose. But really, do you think the DEA will just go away? They are bastards and they will bend and abuse every advantage they have. As long as there is substantial money to be had by arresting people selling, they will do so. If you advocate for legal to grow, illegal to sell then that's what you are advocating.
I think its a step in the right direction but its not enough to make the goons go away, which is probably the most important objective.

Spain might be more enlightened than the US, I don't know about that.
In the US, enforcement can change at the whim of a few officials. One year nothing and the next year a department needs cash and boom! All of a sudden what you were doing becomes a huge fine and legal hassles. If its illegal to grow or to sell then never assume its OK, even if the enforcement is currently lax. At least in the US, I'd say if its not legal then be aware of the consequences. That's not to say I approve of those goons, they need to be legislated out of existence.

Nearly 20 years after California became the first state to legalize the medical use of marijuana, legislators have a plan to impose order on the erratic patchwork of inconsistent policies that currently govern the billion-dollar industry.
“We’re making up for two decades of inaction”, said state senator Mike McGuire, whose district includes the “Emerald Triangle” in Northern California where 60% of the marijuana grown in the US is cultivated. “This legislation brings clarity and desperately needed rules and regulations.”
In the final hours of the legislative session that ended late Friday night, lawmakers passed a trio of bills that create a legal framework that puts the state firmly in control of managing marijuana from “seed to sale” while still leaving local municipalities with the ability to craft their own ordinances and impose taxes, according to state assembly member Ken Cooley, author of one of the bills. The deal was brokered with the assistance of governor Jerry Brown, virtually ensuring it will be signed into law.
Under the plan, a new Bureau of Medical Marijuana Regulation will be created inside the existing Department of Consumer Affairs, charged with managing almost all aspects of marijuana growing, distribution and sale. The bureau would oversee state licenses in these areas, but only if a local license has already been approved.

You've been a good sport about my teasing you little fella.
I've had a few bikes over the years too. Survived a totaled bike hit by a truck 35 years ago. When the truck hit it launched me (luckily) before trashing the bike. I landed hard, but was walking again in about six weeks.
