The way it appears to me, caregivers can exist only in localities that are friendly to dispensaries in the first place, and even then your average caregiver would have to relocate their residential grow to whatever location B&Z deems fitting. Most caregivers could not afford to do that and still offer reasonably priced meds to patients.

If this cleanup bill passes, it effectively puts an end to caregivers, especially in areas where bans and moratoriums exist, and people in Grand Junction, for example, would either have to grow their own, be able to drive a fair distance to visit a dispensary, or go to the dark side. imp:

Dispensaries are probably doing the happy dance though....:rastabanna:
The "dark side" comment constitutes calumny that I , for one, resent, and challenge you to justify. Why would one's election to not (or in my case no longer) participate in the money-grubbing sham that is medical marijuana engender such opprobrium on your part? Did you see underground users and growers of cannabis as evil prior to the creation of the false dichotomy between "medical" marijuana and marijuana? I wouldn't have expected that of you based on your previous posts. Or is my disgust with the whole situation blinding me to the existence of sarcasm?
