    nah. Our society doesn't need MORE problems.

    I still say legalization will lead to trespassing on land not owned by the growers.

    I mean, beer doesn't require people sneaking onto other peoples' property...

    there would be pot growing in every nook and cranny on public and private land.

    They won't have to worry about felonies anymore.

    That is just dumb.

    Cal, if we pass an Alaska style bill- you could make a couple hundred thousand a year growing it on the farm.

    Pot should be legal, but not through a monopoly like issue 3. Anyone who has the land/capital to grow it should be allowed to, not just the 10 millionaires that paid the state government for licenses. That's crony capitalism.

    I'm starting to come to that conclusion. If Alaska can come up with a better plan, we should too.

    Looks like anyone can apply for a commercial grow license, and the state collects a $50 an ounce tax on everything you grow.

  • I'm sure it will be very expensive if passed. Whatever happened to the nickel and dime bag?

    Still plenty of room for profit, especially selling smaller denominations like grams, etc.

    Grown in quantity? That's probably $49.90 in profit

    And count on at least 75 bucks tax.

    A few years ago, before I had our combine... I planted a little acre of field corn for the fun of it. It grew okay,

    and when I went out in the early winter to pick it by hand.... it was mostly all gone.

    Raccoons, deer, etc. ate it all. You just wait til they grow pot. You'll trespassers all the time.

    For medicinal uses, it should only be grow inside of warehouses.

  • Well I never put much though in it before because it was fround on by Johnny Law, Now If it is passed that would make it ok to get HIGH! I am in just somebody please tell me what 1 I should vote for 2 or 3

  • It'll affect the consumer prices more than it'll affect the grower and distributor profits I'm sure.

    Issue 3 doesn't really have the consumer in mind too much.

  • Yes issue two? and NO on issue three.

    I think that is right on two, since libs don't like two.......

  • I strongly support weed legalization but I don't smoke at all myself (and wouldn't even if it was legal)

    I'm probably no on both, but I really wish I could like issue 3

    Yes they do pal. Every NORML supporting dope smoking hippie I know encourages me to vote yes on issue 2.

    They are under the foolish impression that in a matter of time they will put up another bill that allows everybody to grow all the weed they want and sell it everywhere from gas station to the mall to the lemonade stand.

  • Well I'm voting no on 2 and yes on 3.

    Don't give a fuck about Monopoly and even though it would be fun to listen to them whine about being denied their weed through nobody's fault but their own...

    It's just the libertarian streak and me.
