I think I was looking at state offenses at the time. Im not keen on law only thing Im keen on is dabbing up. That makes sense since its legal in my state that I had to look up illegal states. Ya Im worried too hell Id rather quit using than buying again. Lots of breeders and commercial growers not worried saying its matter of time.
I can see that I mean I remember when I first saw bills make it pretty far only to be shot down. Im pretty sure it will be big news if they start to take it away again no matter how they go about it. Growers everywhere.
I guess it can be just as bad as it is now if they keep it that way and go about it that way.

Same boat. Still an apprentice, so I risk getting kicked out of the union despite damn near everybody knowing that everyone has fake piss on them all the time.

Rec legal in 24 states I didnt know that. By the time they try doing that probably most the country got a taste of legal. They did learn from alcohol prohibition and the facts just out of the bag. Im hopeful for descheduling.
Its like taking away cigs and alcohol which have merit to be banned too more than mj. Theres gonna be pushback.

It's all a symptom of the failed war on drugs. now they just have to figure out the best way to monetize their exit strategy.

Wow, tobacco worth 800Bil annually and the alcohol 2,000Bil annually. Cannabis just 40bil. I can see now what yall mean and its easy to see pharma take over which is scary. Just a thought though. They are losing billions to weed treating other things but damn.
Edit might as well finish my searches with the pharma industry worth 600 bil and estimated to lose 18bil to weed. While they still grow annually est to reach over a tril by 2033. So idk what to make of that, is it enough for them? If they move too slow could they lose?
All I know is I use weed rec I take several pharma meds that weed will not treat.

I'm not sure where your numbers come from. For states that legalized, cannabis tax revenues have surpassed alcohol in the vast majority of cases.
The article below only has data through 2021, the difference has grown substantially since then.
From the Institute on tax and economic policy:

Cannabis Taxes Outraised Alcohol by 20 Percent in States with Legal Sales Last Year
In 2021, the 11 states that allowed legal sales within their borders raised nearly $3 billion in cannabis excise tax revenue, an increase of 33 percent compared to a year earlier. While the tax remains a small part of state budgets, it’s beginning to eclipse other “sin taxes” that states have...

Well its nice they say legal is inevitable. Im just here for news sometimes I do poor searches and jump to conclusion. Hobby keeping me busy and frantic. It just said thats what the industry was worth Im just now getting into things. Like who does legalization benefit most, the gov or pharma or both, whats likely to come.
Il keep looking into it and just watch for updates here Hell all Im good at is talking about weed and growing it.

I sure hope it just gets out of schedule 1. If it does, then anyone with an HSA Benefit card will buy their prescription Medical Marijuana just as it does opiods and other prescriptions. Anything schedule 1 means its not recognized as having any medical value is the main reason I've read that currently, you're not allowed.

Trump deciding on something soon or so idk its all over news, get caught up lol. In few weeks could finally see real progress. First municipal owned dispensaries opening up? Ben sharpio is starting to change views on the good herb. Lots of news this year. Every year really.
Just legalize the good herb I dont want to do nothing else with my life. Retired 30 yr old vibes.

Appreciate the news growmie! I'd love to have another tent for growing a male or two. But only if I move or laws change; some of us still gotta be cautious

Problem 1 prison guards are part of the police union. They have lobbyists in DC to keep things illegal so they can justify their positions

i honestly think weed is better than drinking. i drank alot in my late teens into my late 20's because i was stupid and enlisted, i would see way more fights with drinking then i ever would with weed. that being said tho i will never trust any politician doesn't matter what side of the fence they are on, all of them are full of shit and work the system to keep our country struggling. When i got leukemia I lost my SSDI, my tricare, and some of my sanity, no politicians cares, no governors, no white house. the outrage from veteran supporters? yeah that was all online bs also. We live in a world of talkers not doers.Needs to be legal in all states and looked at no different than a glass of wine or other drink.
