This whole thing is going EXACTLY the way Prohibition went. Wanna know what's going to happen? Read your history. There is NOTHING new under the sun, my son.

Do you know how NASCAR started? Prohibition.
Do you know that people went to prison for years, decades for making something that is legal now?
One of the most famous (infamous) bootleggers of all time (Al Capone) went to jail for life - for income tax evasion.
Another one became fabulously wealthy and founded a political dynasty that lasted for a half century (Joe Kennedy).

Read history for answers to the future.
OhNoYaDont Reviewed by OhNoYaDont on . Becoming a legal producer of medical marijuana in California. So... this is a big topic that includes location, licensing, taxes, and i'm sure some sort of permit or something. Does anyone know how to become a legit grow operation. I mean totally legit (except of course in the eyes of federal law). I mean to legally grow and wholesale sell to dispensaries and pay taxes to be completely compliant with all the applicable laws. Can anybody send me in the right direction in figuring out how to do this? Rating: 5
