Who decides how much it's worth? If you own a dispensary and are thus many persons caregiver, Does this not worry you? Who decides how much it cost to grow it? Will the state audit you in EVERY respect to find out what THEY think it's worth? OR will they account for your/my time cultivating it? Either way it plainly says you can't charge more then a fictitious guess at what they will decide it cost you. Then likely worry about this once it gets to court.
I think I can clarify this... but my usual caveat applies: I'm not a lawyer, just a reader.

You've conflated the rules for MMCs (dispensaries) and caregivers, which are treated differently in the bill. Dispensaries are not obligated to sell at cost. That rule only applies to caregivers. If you want to sell your harvest to a dispensary, you're going to have to have some legal relationship with them, and you're going to be taxed on the profits you make. If you want to sell it directly to your patients, you must do so at cost, but you don't have to keep records or pay taxes... I think. I'll reread it tonight.

What's not going to be OK any more is caregivers signing up patients so they can grow a lot of plants on their behalf and then selling that medicine for a profit to retailers.
