All this is just capitalism working in the cannabis market. The market will set the prices. As buyers become more informed on how to rate quality the quality stuff will rise in price and the dirtweed will be dirt cheap. Any time the government gets involved thats going to alter the free market value of commodities by putting regulations controlling certain aspects of the market. The new bill is not going to help the free market. It will result in higher prices for all. If the intiative passes for the first time in the last 100 years we will have a free market place for cannabis for 2 years with no government intrusion other than having to wet nurse the feds. It will be an interesting experiment to see what happens to the cannabis market.
