Hmmm, if the quality dropped and price increased then surely that would create a new Black Market?

Nah, it would be taxed heavily but the end-price would likely be the same imho. Quality would be better but perhaps with limits on certain hashes/oils/budder etc.

But for now (in the UK at least) this is just a pipe-dream - we are stupidly reclassifying cannabis to a higher level next year. Going from U.S equiv Schedule III to Schedule II - (UK Class C to Class B) as far as I understand it.

Meh...

LOL - I realise now Markass posted the same thing before me...

Wait...the title, the only bad thing about legalization..... wheres the bad part, i must be missing something :wtf:

but to continue the paranoid stories... i was on my buddies porch smokin a blunt and a helicopter flew over, thousands of feet up, and my friend started freakin out sayin hide the blunt, get inside, a helicopter lol :hippy:

i dunno about you, but i don't get paranoid about cops bursting through my door. i get paranoid about more realistic things.. oh shit did i leave the stove on? did i miss work? is anyone at work going to be able to tell im blazed? am i acting real stupid? is everyone talking about me? will i ever amount to anything? is smoking weed going to kill me?

i mean the possibilities to paranoy about are endless. (yes i know i just Verbed that word, don't paranoy about it :P) don't worry, i'm sure you'll still act the fool once it's legal :)

rofl that is hilarious!

Hah, I really hope tobacco companies don't take over cannabis if it were legal and put like nicotine in it, that would be gross D:

You never know, it depends on who seizes control of the market.

Think about it, as soon as it becomes legal, the big grow-ops will start pumping out all the weed they can since a bunch of newbies will be looking for fresh game.

Quality will for sure go down, but I'm talking about your every day weed. Nothing with a name but not piss-poor stuff.

And in terms of price, just look at alcohol. Here in Manitoba, we pay about $30 for a 2-4 of beer. In Quebec, it's almost half the price. When the government regulates this kind of stuff, it gets out of hand. Just look at cigarettes. I mean, no one should smoke today's cigarettes with all the shit they put in them, but they probably cost 1/100th of what you pay for it.

Then again, the whole supply/demand thing could even out. Growers will grow more and buyers will buy more.

I just gave a lot of what if's. This doesn't help anyone. My bad.

i heard that in cali you have to have fire inspectors make sure nothing is going ot burn down and cops have to be aware if your growing your own marijauana?

my theory is this: I smoke this to relax and enjoy it. fuck the paranoia! I will be willing to pay the same expensive price but get it legally without having to worry about the legal/social and permanent blackhole that can suck u in forever with 1 mistake or through one asshole!

I hope u r not really making a point out of this against legalization. I take it as a joke :D:jointsmile:

I totally agree dude, I hate being paranoid, but I love it at the same time.
