I agree with your analysis on the cost of mmj. I can remember when an oz cost $20 and it was good stuff even back then. There will be the profiteers, but if its a true non-profit, then they should make allowances and have a fund to assist fixed income patients. But, I really don't see it getting much better if the state's themselves try and take it over completely. they simple can't be trusted either at this stage of the game. As with everything else in this country, it all boils down to money, and there are and will be those who are only in it for the money. MMJ is not cheap and is nearly as expensive as some prescription meds. In my opinion, a real non-profit mmj dispensary or what ever you want to call it, should have an income based sliding scale for meds for verifiable fixed income patients. In order for that to happen though, the non-profit needs outside donations to help cover the cost that those with the income to pay in full can't cover. A move in this direction will prove the validity that mmj is medicine, not just another gold rush bubble. If a mmj whatever can't cut it @ $10 a gram, with a 10% state/federal tax then they are gouging patients and need to cut their overhead cost. :twocents:
