I agree with you, but unfortunately too many people think that robbing your garden is an acceptable way of putting food on the table. Not so easy to steal dogs or custom cars, or re-sell them at top dollar for that matter.

I think legalization is really the only path, which means that most of the current cash croppers will be put out of business, whether from high taxes or large corporations pushing prices down. Now I digress, this is a topic for another thread :jointsmile:
