If they went to a scaled model, then yes. The issue is that the Department of Revenue has to set their budget based on how much the program will cost to implement. So the more patients a dispensary serves, the higher the cost to check where all the meds went.

You can shop at multiple dispensaries if you want to. Patients can also grow for themselves as well as name a caregiver.

The registry will honor higher plant counts, but again, it's incumbent on the patient to prove they need those higher plant counts.

My issue with the whole DEA debate is this: if the state is taking money from medical marijuana dispensaries, doesn't that make them an accessory?
