New bill would ease state-federal pot conflict

Yeah right dude, are you aware of the regulation there? I have friends that are some of the best growers in Colorado that are shut out of the industry now. They owned popular dispensaries or supplied multiple spots until the regulation came down in '11. Caregivers are null an void in the medical industry. Small growers will be SOL there too. Especially since for the recreational law non businesses will hardly be able to grow anything at all.

-marijuana tax enforcement-

the black market explodes when regulation goes online
....and then the market floods

who wants to buy rootabaga if everyone is selling them unless you have special ones....

its all by design to take the $out and dilute the market ...
then they can re-boot it and be in control-

yes let us make friends now while we have the light of day...soon it will be dark again-

--at least you are awake! +rep!

I am for some form of regulation and taxing in the medical industry. If we get into legalization... That's a different story. Not sure where I stand on it at this point. It's more like gotta find the lesser of all evils in that situation. But where is it? Which option doesn't rape 90% of the people that depend on this plant for their livelyhood?

This bill will never pass. Our federal politicians don't care about what makes sense they care about the industries most capable of handling out big "campaign contributions". The pharmaceutical lobby is one of the largest in the country and they will spend billions to keep cannabis as a scheduled 1 controlled substance. Marijuana reform will not be done until we have comprehensive campaign finance reform.
