In some ways yes. Then again Arizona accepts California recommendations on visitors from California and California residents employed in Arizona also fall under the employee medical cannabis patient's protections afforded by prop 203 like regular Arizonan medical marijuana patients. You have to admit thatâ??s pretty cool!Quote:

actually, Will humble is working as openly and closely with the public and potential dispensary owners as possible. As our communications broaden and the first draft is released more changes will be implemented.Quote:

Will Humble is a bit of a shithead and he fought tooth and nail against Prop 203. I don't think he can be a neutral participant in the implementation of prop 203 at this point and needs to be replaced.Quote:

Feel free to toot his horn all you want. Try hard enough and long enough and Will Humble might even award your organization the dispensary you seek. I think you're making a mistake hitchin your wagon to his mule team. Will Humble was and remains a vocal opponent of medical cannabis in the State of Arizona. It is unfortunate that medical marijuana patients in your state have to rely upon HIM to get their program rolling.Quote:

But - that doesn't piss me off...this does...
SB1222 - 492R - Senate Fact Sheet
' Excludes medical marijuana dispensed from a registered nonprofit medical marijuana dispensary from the Transaction Privilege Tax (TPT) and use tax exemption for drugs and medical oxygen, regardless of whether the medical marijuana is dispensed through the written certification of a physician. Imposes a luxury tax of $20 on each ounce of medical marijuana dispensed from a registered nonprofit marijuana dispensary.'
a freakin luxury tax? On medicine ?!? So it is a luxury for someone with a debilitating condition to have medicine? Tell someone suffering from "SEVERE AND CHRONIC PAIN" that releif is a luxury is insane !
And as for DOH funding, while these civil servants have to stop web surfing the internet long enough to write these rules, that is what they are paid a normal salary to do...and beyond that, the 'verification system' while costly, will be paid for. When I went to school, I learned that 124 x $5,000 = $620,000 (just dispensary app fees...that doesn't count caregivers, agents and patients!)
It will certainly be very interesting to see how this develops...
