some people say that they cant legalize pot cause of various reasons, but hey could by making the same as cigarettes, cant SELL to kids under 19 or some shit, cant sell without taxes or buy without taxes, cant do it in public restaurants, i would be fine with these restrictions, wouldnt you guys? plus the gov. would make sooooooo much money from taxes and gov owned pot shops. and save $$$$$ from all the police needed to enforce the laws.

I'd hope it would be something on the lines of having growers have to get licenses to grow or a special business license. I'm not sure any good can come out of the govt. taking control over it.

Full on legalization would probably make it illegal to grow but legal to buy from the govt. No telling if they lower the potency or what not. Sure it won't necessarily mean everyone would stop growing but I feel the govt. would raise the stakes for getting caught growing. Some nasty felony and/or fine. Doesn't seem too different but if the growers are able to market it, it's probably best legal or illegal, imo.

Hell, I'm probably being naive here. But what are your opinions?
wow.. that was the most greedy american capitalistic thing i have heard from a pot head. that made for a good laugh... and yes your being really naive

d00d ive been seein your posts around..
this isnt someplace to just tell people what they do is "...the most greedy american capitalistic thing..."
treat others as you would like to be treated, and generally just be polite. if he wants to sell his pot let him, im sure he loves his job as would i if i did the same. and besides his argument is no different then that of marijuana club owners..
theyre all just semi-legal dealers...

so please sir, if you could not be naive and maybe check out all sides of the equation...

and d00d, if your stoked that your ounces go for 150, get out here to socal, i see oz's go anywhere from 200-250$ for regs and a minimum 300-400 for kush and good herbs. a well grown crop of jack herer from my dealer who had 3/4 pound of it went for 450 an oz about a month ago and it got bought up within 3 days

well, when they legalize weed, I think people should be allowed to open up shops, and sell it that way, they grow it, they sell it, and the government puts taxes on it. everybody wins. until I come in. then if somebody wants to run a potshop they're gonna have to work for me!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm thinkin a couple bucks for a spliff
then double that for the blunts

if they taxed it, it would be more expensive for us... go and get your licence and live with it. . . smoke on and believe a better future is before us.

yeah, but without having to hide it, there could be entire fields full of maryjane, so the price would probably go down alot. here, for basic weed it's $5 a gram, if there's fields of it, they could sell a pack of joints just like cigs. even if they were $20, if there's 20 joints it works out to $1 a joint, and I couldn't get a licence, cause I just love marijuana, I don't need it to take care of any pain.

I used to think as you do & im some ways i still do,my biggest fear of the 100% legalization of marijuana in the united states is that the government will manage to fuck that up once they get involved in it for profit,if there's big money in it the government demands its cut first & always will.

Tax stamps,weak ass strains,even harsher penalties then we have right now for bootleggers,where the government will make up the lost revenue from lack of asset seizures,these are the things that worry me about legalization.

You should read up on how much tax the government levies on a pack of smokes or a 6 pack of beer,the majority of the consumer cost is paid to the government in tax'es,if the government starts taxing pot the price will tripple over night.

There is allready a marijuana tax in the united states,its not implimented at this time but there is law on the books.
