I honestly believe that the profiteers will not last. There is no real profit in the production now, as we discussed previously in this thread. People that do it for the love of doing it and to help each other...those people will prevail. I don't believe the state wants another Colorado situation, and just yesterday they are proposing big changes in Colorado...More toward the New Mexico model for commercial growers, and supporting cooperative grows.

It certainly works for California. Five to seven people sign on with a person with a setup and they support a grow. They get good meds, its cheap, and they are staying away from the dispensary. If they are all friends it gets cheap really fast. If a person with the equipment wants to produce at a profit they can, but are limited to the amount of patients they are growing for. It works as a small business and as a cooperative. Just like I believe our laws will too.

When dope is legalized, whenever that is, then it will be the day of the "dispensary". This is about Medical Marijuana and legitimizing the use and production of marijuana by the patients. Also, the availability of medicine to every patient.

Heck, it is a hearty plant that thrives in any New Mexico growing zone. We have extensive agriculture and an excellent climate. We have top notch farmers and horticulturists, and one of the premeir agricultural colleges in the world. It should be FREE.
