Lower prices=More smokers=law changing?

[Rollablunt]

Would it make sense if dealers would start selling at slightly lower prices and growing more so its more affordible to people. Because doing that would allow people on tighter budgets to smoke to...and more often. There for when the government realizes that the number of people smoking is increasing at extreme rates they would be pressed to change laws.
Then when laws change Mary jane would be cheaper for EVERYONE =]


There are THOUSANDS of drug dealers. If there where 500 dealers per major city, and each one got 1 new customer each month (due to lower prices), then you could assume there would be 500 new customers per month multiply that by number of Major citys and you have Tons of new smokers.

If i dont make sense sorry im high as the sky =]

Only problem is - dealers benefit from the illegality of marijuana. Without marijuana laws, the dealer is not needed. Marijuana is still illegal because some of its biggest users want it to stay illegal.

i like the idea of low prices meybe even free the way it should be baby baby

[The Baked Head]

hey Rollablunt! i love the idea of prices being cheaper lol hell even free would be better! but at the same time, i have a feeling the "Empire" will strike back even harder! since i believe that the reason its illegal is to create crime in the first place. by creating crime, you scare your population in to doing pretty much whatever you want.

Maybe you need to grow your own and not worry about a Marijuana Welfare Program.:wtf:
Then after you do that, give it all away for free. LMFAO:jointsmile:

If cannabis became legal then the government would put heavy taxes on it similar to alcohol. Dealers would continue to do their thing but instead of getting arrested for possession they would be arrested on tax fraud and what not. Marijuana will never be cheap if you get it from a 3rd party. Grow GROW GROW. thats the only wayy to beat it:rastasmoke:

but the point of the government legalizing it is to get the black market out of it, you do that by making the cost of this plant matter which is very cheap to widely cultivate cheap as dirt, and put a nice tax on it, but it would take a HELL of a tax for it to exceed prices of what it is now...It would be cheaper than it is now, and drug dealers wouldn't be selling it on the corner because they wouldn't be able to compete with prices...

I think we would all benefit if EVERYONE STARTED GROWING!

[Storm Crow]

Plant every seed, free the weed! Should you buy weed if you have a seed?

In a world that is globally warming, it should be a crime NOT to plant seeds! Growing & green = good!

(Sorry, granny's a bit "crunked" tonight. Had a L-O-N-G day at work today. Because of confidentiality issues, I can't tell you about it- but I still love my kids.)

Many of the dealers and cartels are part of the reason why it's still illegal. Just because a great many smokers are passive people doesn't mean that the dealers are, too. They're out there to make a profit, and many of them will sell to kids if they have to. What's worse, now we're hearing all about the "additives" that are getting thrown in to this commercial crap to make it weigh more. Glass particles, sand, silica, etc. It's ridiculous.

Growing your own is the best alternative, but sadly, many don't have the means to do this. So if you can't grow your own, then learn what you CAN do. Attend rallies, find activists who are actually doing something in your area, be proactive! Once there are enough "average citizens" who are willing to speak out and make change happen, then you can expect to see changes. But don't expect change to happen on its own, it's going to take a collective effort from A LOT of people... but it can be done. Stay optimistic! :jointsmile:

That makes perfect sense but things is gettin all the dealers to really lower prices. like a dub for 10 buck a dime for 5 bucks. there would be alot more people smoking.

[Storm Crow]

I got kilos of good Mex for $65. FAT ounces were $10. I think that is about the right price! Hopefully, that is where it will settle after legalization! :D - Granny:hippy:

[Nailhead]

haha, you think drug dealers are the ones determining price? The price of any illegal drug is determined by how effective the government is at stopping the flow of whatever drug you want to use as an example.

If you think John Walters, the US drug czar, would just sit back and watch dealers sell weed in mass amounts for cheap, well then, you're really high! lol Sorry to be your buzzkill, but it would never work, however I still like the idea of crazy cheap weed :) Someday!!
