Consumers prefer to smoke cannabis, not take single-compound pharmaceutical-grade cannabis products. For the FDA to oversee cannabis approvals, Congress may need to act.
It’s a plant. Plants should be legal to grow. Maybe sometimes you will have to take steps if you want to grow it and it’s an invasive plant, but it’s still a fucking plant.
I use cannabis medicinally, and it’s true that I would prefer to vaporize it (I don’t smoke) when I use it than take some sort of pill. Because it gives me very fast pain relief. I’m sure if inhaling ibuprofen worked much faster than taking a pill, people would do that too.
I also smoke it (I don’t vaporize) medicinally for my leg and I can go from “literally can’t stand up” to “pretty much fine” in like 4 tokes, it’s amazing 👍
But one of the side effects I’ve been experiencing lately is that I’m always having a great time, which some people really seem to have a problem with 🤔 I can’t figure it out.
I can’t help but say commodity cannabis ruined weed though. Dudes should be growing it in their back yards and sharing it freely with their dawgs, not paying $300 an ounce at a dispensary that feels like the DMV. The cannabis industry MUST be deregulated.
We can only grow in Illinois with a valid medical card, otherwise it’s a $200 ticket. The police union fought back when they wanted to let everyone grow.
Our supply is kept artificially low by overregulation. You need something like a million dollars in liquid money to get the permits to grow commercially and they only give out a handful of licenses per year, ensuring that the rich get richer and everyone else gets fleeced. Still better than Iowa where “any amount” leads to jail time.
That blows. I’ve heard some people complain similarly here, but the bar seems at least somewhat lower.
I’m just thrilled I can go to a store with posted hours, rather than calling a guy who says to come to his house and then isn’t there, tells you to wait for him, and two hours later finally shows up to tell you he doesn’t have anything for you.
(Not that this was my normal experience, but it happened enough to make me despise most dealers.)

Most (every?) state where it’s legal allow you to grow your own plants.

Damn. Living in Michigan is pretty great on this front. Weed is dirt cheap at dispensaries here.

the point of dispensaries is to not have a product grown in a backyard that is lab tested
does anyone here not remember the before times?
also would you buy your lettuce from Earl on the corner or from the store?
what is the quality of the soil in these backyards
