There will be plenty of very wealthy people and corporations in California who would love to corner the market. We can stop that by limiting the licensing fees and taxes, and not allowing huge, warehouse-sized operations.

There are lots of folks who will simply want to make a killing, and have the money to buy the influence to dominate the market. Or, it could look a lot like it does now; many entrepreneurial small growers taking pride in their products, and keeping it pure.

Your town doesn't have to be like Oakland will be, with huge licensing fees and a small number of big players who can afford to play, leaving smaller growers out of the picture.

One strength of the prop is that cities will have to decide for themselves how to handle it. Some will be kinder than others. Get to know your city council members, and talk to them. Tell them what you want to see: Income opportunities for many in this "jobless recovery," not giant pot factories.

Politicians who create real jobs for the many will be well-liked. The sellout corporate whores, not so much! :smokin:
