really does it matter wh controls the market or susidiaries as for my self ill controll my own by over growing
If they move it to schedule as medicine they may just make home growing illegal. Who am I kidding? They WILL make it illegal.
All we can do is look out for âourselvesâ. Since industrialization, things folks did for themselves have been taken over by industry (from knitting mittens, baking bread and growing tomatoes,etc). Folks will accept â good enoughâif it frees up time for recreational pursuitsâŚwe choose to give up our freedoms in exchange to be lazy.
That is a good way to put it. There will always be room for really good unique craft cannabis.
I tried to tell folks this back in 2014, they all just said âŚNAW!
Called me chicken little tooâŚI was soo hurt âŚLOL
âThe industryâs not gonna go anywhere, itâs just going to bypass the people who created it, and I think that thatâs the real crime.â
The way the people who only started after legalization speak of the old timers and black market is shameful.
The lack of understanding of what they did and the lack of respect shown for the risks taken is wrong.
im thinking making it illegal being illegal for the first 50 years of my life didnt stop me from smoking im having a hard time believing it would stop me now
Hopefully theyâll deal with the THC percentage cap on solid concentrates first, but hereâs to hoping, I guess? I like Pepper, he seems to be a very thoughtful guy, but Iâm a little skeptical about the Over 21 farmers market bit, that might work in Chittenden county, but I donât know how well it would work in other less populated areas of the state.
Good news for a change, well maybeâŚLOL
Wow, we need more of thisâŚ
Vermont has allowed farmers to sell raw milk directly to consumers from their farms since 2009. Since 2014, it has allowed them to deliver and sell at farmers markets.
Kornheiser said she is âquite open-mindedâ about allowing farmers to sell cannabis directly to consumers.
We will see how it plays out, big Cannabis money will not like this one bit.
lol jokes on the govt its always been direct to consumer sales from growers i remember in the 80s there was some sensi that smelled exactly like a chistmas tree and would fuck you up
Theyâve been âthreateningâ this change for the last 2 decades but it never passes, they would be crazy to change the laws now.
Classic case of religion trying to pull the strings of government.
We did this to Zenleaf in Jersey and it was completely deserved. They had fake glowing reviews up a week before opening and one of them was from the CEO who was too stupid not to use his own google account with his name on it. He acted like he was a customer who had a great experience there.
Then they released their menu with prices ahead of time and they were priced higher than anyone in the state. It was clear they were only here to be setup for recreational and were willing to gouge patients until then. $70+ eighths! Everyone called them out for fake reviews and gouging and bombed their google reviews to the ground. Then a buddy of mine told me to check out reddit because they were talking about it there and a bunch of brand new accounts were coming in and very childishly defending the company. Theyâd say stuff like âI donât know what you idiots are talking about, Zenleaf is fantastic and youâd have to be a moron not to think soâ, really immature BS.
Then it came to light that the same CEO who wrote the fake reviews, and most likely made these one off accounts to troll, had a reddit history of using racial slurs pretty freely. After all this came out and people saw through their bullshit all their prices came down drastically to save their ass (not cheaper than other dispensaries but in line with standard NJ pricing).
Zenleaf will never see a dime of my money and I wish people didnât forgive/forget so easily cause we could have shut them down before they were fully established. Instead rec passed and they have lines around the building from people who werenât aware of any of the nonsense.
