Is this stuff not legal everywhere yet? So archaic and stupid imo. And I don’t even partake.

Maybe you should. Wouldn’t hurt. Might even help A bit.

I’ve never taken the THC stuff myself but I take CBD semi-regularly and my son takes it daily to help with his Autism. I’ve also invested a few thousand in various companies. Ironically those stocks perform like a pothead and keep losing money.

It just pisses me off that Joe Biden is so damn ignorant. It’s truly his ‘OK Boomer’ moment IMO. It also pisses me off that I’ve donated $500 to him and now I’ve got to dig around to see who I’ll support next. I just know it won’t be Sanders or Warren.

Forging ahead in the house. My guess is it never sees a vote in the Senate and turtle man takes the heat rather than let's it impact all the gop senators come election.

I'll have to agree with Gaetz on this one.

Matt Gaetz to Kellyanne Conway over marijuana legalization: ‘OK, boomer’

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) on CNN on Saturday criticized White House counselor Kellyanne Conway’s previous comments against marijuana regulation.

Gaetz said, "To my friend Kellyanne Conway, I would say, 'OK, boomer,'" referencing a popular meme on social media used to push back against older generations' criticism of millennials and Generation Z.

Continuing, he said, "That's a very boomer approach to marijuana, for no other reason than it's THC, not TCH, and I think her reflection shows a real ignorance to the science."

I really need to move out of Texas and to another state. Common sense and social progress seem to take decades longer here as people cling to the past.

Illinois is now recreational legal. A friend sent me this.

Wow! A 34% tax that's crazy. I'm guessing with all that tax the black market will still thrive.

For some segments of the market, I suspect that's true. For others, the convenience and legality of just being able to walk in a store and purchase will still be desirable over having to "have a guy" and all of that business.

That's pricey even before the tax.

 

[zeetes]

even a 1 gram (85%+ thc) 510 cart shouldn't be more than around $40 (on the street, legally of course.....)

 

[wnelson]

12/gr is an avg black market price, or so I have heard so 45 a gram is insane....

 

[kcirdor]

300 dollars for 5 grams?

...I guess if it ever comes to Louisiana I'm gonna have to quit smoking.
