I'm sure people have seen this it's not new or anything. What did you guys think? It completely changed how I look at marijuana and how it's percieved. So many myths out there about marijuana. It's crazy too how it's legal for medicinal by the state, but the Feds can raid the shops and take everything since it's not legal by federal law

That device he wakes and bakes with is pretty sweet.

Didn't see it but actually had this conversation come up tonight.. ive heard there is a vote in like 30 days in new york for medicinal marijuana. really reallly gonna be praying this goes through.

im of course all for it, get it done in all 50 states... and then from there our rights are only gonna improve once everyone realizes the potential benefits for legalizing FAR FAR outweigh any (if there are any) possible cons

If it ever got legalized the prices would drop significantly. basic grams of
mids would be about $6. ounces of exotics would drop 30-40%.

The laws are a bit different now then they were when this movie was made. I watched this movie probably every month in the last year of high school.

I like Doug Benson.

I'm not sure about that but I can find out as one of my buddies has a legal outit to grow and retail--just a block away from me.

But heard that the legal stuff does not compare and has a diff buzz.

Don't know. Don't take either and not interested.

well if it's legal there will be more places to buy from and prices will naturally comedown because of competition. unless it's like ciggarretes and there is a state minimum

yes, the Gov has their hands in there and 'm sure they will issue a maximum of licences to sell--just like contolling taxis or chip wagons licences--only so much per square mile.

funny thing is that seeds are bigger sellers cuz people get to grow their own at home

all kinds of weed/seeds from chocolate to fruit flavoured--lol

I don't ask questions I just listen to what he says to customers when I'm in his shop for other things

so there will come a time that you won't be able o buy a licence

you'll have to buy it from another seller that wants out and the price to transfer will be high

going rate for a taxi licence is at least 10X the rate it was 10 years ago

so it doubles every year?

nice investment if you ask me

If they legalize it they will tax the shit out of it, so I don't know if the prices will really drop. The legalization bill in california is calling for a $50 per ounce fee and 9% tax.

George Washington

Like virtually every Revolutionary farmer, the Father of Our Country grew prodigious quantities of hemp. It was (is) a profitable cash crop, easy to grow, with scant demands for cultivation, watering or fertilizing. As a hardy perennial, it needs no year-after-year replanting, nor pesticides or herbicides.

Washington and his fellow planter/presidents Tom Jefferson and James Madison would be astonished to hear that hemp is illegal. These early chief executives would certainly have told President Obama that a re-legalized cannabis crop would mean billions of dollars in desperately needed farm revenue throughout the United States.

But in one of his meticulous agricultural journals, dated 1765, Washington regrets being late to separate his male hemp plants from his females. For a master farmer like George, there would be little reason to do this except to make the females ripe for smoking.
