Only thing we can do is vote for like minded legislators. If a couple start losing elections over this issue it will wake the others up

Presumably some member(s) of the government (the mob) have business interests in ct and mass, and are protecting their purses.

I know here in Oklahoma you can’t find many doctors willing to say yes. They won’t admit it, but I believe it to be a Church thing. Most congregations I know of are dead set against any form of cannabis use. I’m actually surprised the medical part passed. I know if I told my doctor I wanted to try medical marijuana he would roll his eyes and say leave that alone. But again, he is big into his church.

Perhaps he could write you a prescription for prayer. Having a good reasonable doctor makes all the difference.
Also I’m taking my next vacation in Uganda.

The level of THC, which is marijuana’s key psychoactive ingredient, jumped to 15% in 2021 up from 4% in 1995.
Please note:
To all the folks that see the 35% THC weed for sale, please note the article says 15% is the high end not 35%.
Your test results are not what you think they are,

According to the Constitutional Court, the manner in which the law was enacted was illegal and hence it had to be repealed.
I have been calling for this in the USA since 2013.
Wake the fuck up America.

Thc levels are lies. Like the age a woman tells ya or when a man states he is ginormous. Not saying that the 35% isn’t reachable but would take environmental control, genetics and expierance that normal homegrowers do not possess.
Irregardless of my limitations, I still enjoy my homegrown.

I agree prohibition in America was enacted illegally, and based on lies therefore the prohibition needs to be repealed.
If politicians operated based on the truth they wouldn’t need to embarrass themselves by spewing Bs. Folks is so used to politicians and others in the limelight lying we tend to just shrug it off (got better things to do and it wouldn’t change anything anyway).
We are being led and influenced by the self center and narsasistic (where is spellcheck when ya want it help) members of society.

Well said @yardgrazer
Folks are happy to just be able to buy weed in stores so that they do not think about the reality of the whole situation.

The THC level lies about how this is not your grandfather’s weed are just that, lies. It jumped from 4% to 15% because that 4% was crap weed that was all over the place during prohibition. I guarantee you we had better than 15% weed back in the day, it just wasn’t bunk bull crap ditch weed.

Please forgive the following rant. As a once “young” person, it always drove me crazy when old timers would tell me about the days they walked to school in 3 feet of snow, uphill, both ways.
I don’t see any difference in the potency of cannabis today vs. 40 years ago. I’ve had all the designer strains, the cookie of the month, the platinum’s, the zkittle’s, the OG’s and the Kush’s and they all bring something unique to the table, but it’s not potency, it’s character. Like a fine wine, different strains have different character.
It’s important to remember that “back in the day” the vast majority of cannabis was imported into the US. It was a rare treat to come across someone who had homegrown that actually finished in a North American climate. Most of the sativa’s available back then wouldn’t even finish in SoCal. Almost everything we bought back then was racy and heady. Very little body. In addition to that, everything that came into the US, came in as a brick. Everything had to be broken down. Quality was heavily dependent upon how wet the cannabis was when it was pressed, how long it sat in a cargo ship and how hot the temperatures were. My guess is that it was fire when it was chopped, lost almost all of the terpenes that we prize so dearly today and probably lost at least 30 to 50% of the quality based upon the above conditions. On top of that, everything, and I mean everything we consumed then was seeded. Yet with everything just mentioned above, a bowl of Redbud or Jamaican could make you think you were having a heart attack if you over indulged. I agree with @Zolorp though. They took a sample from some terrible Cartel dirt weed that sat in a tunnel under San Diego for a year and said “Look, 4% THC.”
I want you to really think about what 35% THC means. That means if you could separate every trichome head (which does not entirely consist of THC) and lay the pile of heads next to the plant material, the amount would be greater than 1/3rd of the total mass of the bud. I’m not buying it for a second. A very large amount of what we see on our most prized and frosted strains today are stalks. In every observation I’ve made with a hyper frosted bud vs. a run of the mill strain, the trich heads are significantly smaller on the frosted bud and the stalks are much larger and longer than on your average strain.
At the end of the day, none of it matters. Now we grow our own and we grow it better than what we used to buy. Why are lawmakers so obsessed with percentages when all you have to do is make concentrates. If they’re squawking about bud percentages, it’s a prelude to concentrate control as well.
(p.s. I did have to walk to school in the snow, but it was only uphill one way).

Back in the late 70s I had a connect with a line directly to some people bringing it in. Santa Marta Gold, Thai Stick, Jamaican Lambsbread, all freshly cured and all of it better than anything I ever had from a dispensary. The Pakistani they brought in put me into a couch lock that lasted 6 hours. So yeah, there’s nothing new about the new weed other than flavor profiles.Some of it will light you up as much as the old stuff that was brought in.

Good point @Coda
The real old-school sativa guys say the old-school stuff was better.
They all are going back to those roots for a reason too.
So there is more going on than meets the eye here.
There has been a ton of talk about THC limits lately so who knows?
