you know the store weed won't be as good as the cartel weed. that isn't even debatable. the store weed will also be more expensive. people will always find the better price and product. that is the cartels.


Sorry I'm so late in responding to your post. I had to make a run to the North Georgia mountains to reload on my moonshine supply. No one wants to drink that legal Old Grandad piss.

:ohno:

And as for your assertion that legalizing drugs would make them more expensive, please, just read one Economics 101 book.

HAHA - great post. A couple times I had was going to reply about those S. American cartels that are still selling smokes and booze (since they make it better than the damn US based legal guys)

Pretty easy how to cure insatiable demand for illegal drugs. Make them legal. No more demand for illegal drugs.

But she's right though. There is an insatiable demand. Because it's illegal.

heh....

Americans love drugs

no wait

Americans LOVE drugs

In the next 24 hours, over 95% of Americans will use one or more drugs. And they will obtain them from wherever or whoever gets their desired drug(s) to them most efficiently and/or at the best price - though the latter component is often not even pertinent.

legalizing drugs isn't going to stop the cartels. the cartels will always have something better at a better price.

Nonsense. An illegal cartel or criminal organization can never fiscally compete with producers and dealers operating in a legal, free market.

That's why the Mexican drug cartels don't deal in the most popular drugs - alcohol, tobacco and OTC pharmaceuticals. Nor can they deal controlled pharms to Americans who have easy access to them via co-pay insurance plans.

The advent of Crack cocaine made it a common mans drug with affordable prices...that helped the spread also...

Rather passe in the year 2009

It's reasonable to state that less than 2% of Americans use cocaine in any form and less than a quarter million use crack cocaine for any length of time.

While cocaine can certainly be an enjoyable drug to use, it's quite simply too debilitating to use for any significant period of time which is why nearly anyone who uses it for very long has either quit using it or will quit soon enough.

Posts like the one above demonstrate painful ignorance

State legal producers are selling out of controlled store fronts right now in California, Oregon and Washington and British Columbia. And if you think the illegal cartels can compete with the quality of their product, you are showing your utter lack of knowledge on this topic

You gotta be kidding me? The cartels are the ones shipping in the dirt cheap commerical mexican brick weed. The great strains are from homegrowers and medicinal caregivers. Go to amsterdam and it's all exotic strains which make the dank here look tame. Very few people would be going to a shady area to illegally buy a bag of poopy weed when they can get it legally.

First time I toked with state-legal medical marijuana patients in California when I visited in 2002, I got three vaporized blasts and then got lost on the way to the bathroom. (down the hall and to the left about 100 feet)

Once I found it had trouble remembering how to pee.

No demand equals no problem.

The hundreds of millions of North Americans who LOVE drugs aren't going away.

But imagining life in an alternative universe DrugFreeAmerika is admittedly Fun!

i'll still argue manufactured weed will be "watered down" compared to the weed these cartels bring in.

they'll do something to it to to cheapen its effect.

Of course

That's why all the legal alcohol dealers sell "watered down" product, thus allowing illegal dealers to operate a multi billion dollar black market to the folks who want The Good Stuff.

Wonder how to go about getting an allotment for the farm.

If I did, how would I keep the interlopers out?

As already noted by several posters above in this thread, state-legal marijuana produced in CA, OR, WA and BC ranges between 5 to 10x the quality level of Mexican-imported pot.

So there's no theorizing going on. It's established and preexisting fact

Pretty much the same way that Anheuser Busch keeps "interlopers" out of their production facilities.

If needed, you hire employees qualified to work security.

Additionally, since you're a legal enterprise, you should also be able to count on whatever level of local police protection is offered to any commercial business that could conceivably be the target of burglars.
