It says a personal exchange is non taxable. So you go to your buddy's house, and leave him a nice free bag, he happens to have some money on the coffee table that he says he doesn't need anymore, you wanna have it?
Done not a sale, you gave him a gift and he gave you a gift.

i think this bizarre classification of weed is just wrong.. and $200+/- and ounce is a stranglehold on the seller - you will have more street dealers selling tax free weed than legal shops...

Actually the grading scale isn't that bad. i mean look at this way, for the first time user they could say get grade C. Not to mention it keeps the grower honest. I mean i be pissed to get some grade A and it only last 30 Min's to hr. looks can be deceiving

Yeah the system of grading isnt bad but I think they wil have a hard time analyzing allll the weed, and ford442 made a really great point, taxes for the b and a grade on ounces are too much, how can the seller make a profit?

really it isn't hard to analyze the weed at all. it takes a small and i do mean a small amount from a batch of weed. it not like they have to test every bud off the plant. i imagine the bud from one plant will be tested, that's how i would go about it. As for the taxes, if they do pass this probably will be lowered off the bat. Someone already said the bill does allow for the taxes to be adjusted when needed

If it's taxed by THC content, who in the hell is going to carry around litmus testers with them to keep the shops honest? I mean, I'm sure it will be pre-packaged as cigarettes are, and there is most definitely a shelf-life before THC starts to degrade, sometimes very quickly....

I truly don't want to rain on anyone's parade but how about just a touch of reality here. You folks are way too stoned if you think this has a snowball's chance of becoming law. What is the average age of members on this forum? 14?

So why are you in this thread? Something about the title must've caught your attention. If you don't think legalization of marijuana stands a snowballs chance in hell, why would you take time out of your busy schedule to tell the masses this, other than the fact that you DO like to rain on parades? 14 posts on here and you're already pissing people off - not good!

maybe if enough states do this the feds will just change the federal law.

I think the feds are starting to sweat a little bit, they can see the people slipping through their fingers. They've just about lost control of this country. People are already starting to go nuts.
A couple more things that really piss off the Joe Citizenry out there and the shit's going to hit the fan.
Legal marijuana could save those politicians necks, but they just refuse to see it.

He said NO, flat out NO. So I wonder now, will CA and MA give Obama the finger and legalize anyway? God, I hope so..........

stays relevant.
CA would do it just to be the first, but even then it can take a couple of years to get there.
