Prop 19 does state that is not intended to affect prop 215 law, that's stated quite clearly at the start of the bill
it takes away no rights from patients or growers
what it does do is give more MJ rights to everyone, and that could include companies
short of increasing enforcement into people's homes, no one loses anything
the fear seems to be of having large companies in the MJ business
they can't take away anyone's rights, not legally anyways
all they can do is grow large quantities of MJ
how that will work out i think is a mystery, i think corporate MJ must wait until Federal law changes
any company that wants to test the recreational growing biz may find just how DEA operates
No, because there will be a limited number of corporations and large scale permits given out. Do you think once these large scale growers gain control they won't get legislation passed for their own benefit? These corporations are getting in on the ground floor and I promise you they will try and milk every cent they can out of it while they can, dragging down the marijuana community with em'. Independent growers will eventually not be able to sell there excess meds to the clubs and I feel the average citizen should be able to supplement their income. I wouldn't mind these corporations being started if they weren't trying to screw the everyday person by funneling all of the money to be had into their own pockets through legislation. We're in a huge economic slump and people could use the money more than ever. They are already trying to build concern in the media about where the marijuana is coming from and if it's safe. This is just another way to scare people into passing a bill that takes away individuals rights.
That sounds catchy and all, but it allows for a minimum growing space of 25sq feet. You should easily be able to get 1lb+ every 10 weeks with that space. That covers personal growing amounts pretty well.
Which is already regulating and decreasing peoples rights allowed under prop 215. This is also just the start, these corporations haven't even really started to put pressure on the law makers which will happen once they start making money.
Show me where this law says it supersedes prop 215. That's just not true.
This part shows how local governments are going to be able to make laws about who's growing the herb and I guaranttee it's going to be the people buttering up polititians. Section 11301 is the big one put in there to regulate production and and allowes the bill to trump prop 215 and you have already stated that this bill limits personal cultivation.
