Yeah, agreed, a cannabis tax of a million bucks a gram is the same as prohibition.
It's really hard to forecast what a legalised market would pay for pot and in what forms it would be sold.
You know that commercial tobacco concerns have LONG been preparing to market pot if legalised. The tobacco companies also own breweries and other alcohol making concerns- and they are hedging their bets. I suspect we may even see tailor-made joints in packs like tobacco cigarettes.
You can rest assured that buying pouches of nice nuggie buds as we do now will be harder. It'd be difficult to scale proper bud manicuring up to huge commercial levels and transporting the finished buds so they arrive in decent condition.
In the 1970s, the 'bricked' stuff out of Mexico & Sth America was the absolute bane of the pot market. It would partially ferment/compost in the middle of the brick. Always a musty mouldy scent. Yuk. Never again.
I haven't been to Amsto in a few years, can't comment on the prices.
