More LP whining...

kDude said:

if anybody thinks anyone currently is in this to solely help others, they are sadly mistaken.
they're a business. they all are.. LP or dispensary.. hell even collective.
you know what isn't? growing your own.. which is and always will be the most recommended route from anyone but government or big business.

it's kinda messed up though.. first they split us into med and rec (which i hate we let happen) now it's going even further with us fighting over who's less corrupt; dispensaries or LP's?
i'll tell you this; atleast dispensaries are more entrepreneurial-ish with letting more people have a shot.. not just picking a couple with already large bank accounts to fire up whole warehouses.

pk said it much better than i though.

i'd love to see everyone self sufficient with us doing farmers markets.. i know that's a hippy shangra-la dream though

They have the same choice of what is available. Nobody held a gun to your head on your choice of lp. I have more respect for a company that produces and sells their own product that one who middles a product. They both suck. Ive said it before if cc or dispensaries would just hook up patients to growers for a small fee i would be 100% behind it. But that would never happen because they want that high profit for themselves. But ya your right they are their to help patients.

Zero respect for the greedy who try to screw the sick into buying their poison.

LP's gave No one a choice in what they could buy!!! Where have you been?

Same place as you. You always had a choice in changing lps. You should be mad at hc they were the ones that gave you no choice. You seemed to fixated on the symptoms not the root cause.

The courts already gave us the change and choice. My doc didn't care about changing lps. He just wrote it us as a visit and charges hc accordingly. Your thoughts on walking out of a dispensaries if unsatisfied would be the same as choosing not to buy from an lp = no meds. Said it before dispensaries buy cheap sell to you at double the cost. Both crooks at lps dont try to act like they are their to help. Reminds me of a certain speech from the 60's "i rather a man tell me how he feels and be wrong, than a man you acts like and angel and is nothing but the devil".

My two cents...Your comparison of walking out of a dispensary being on par to deciding to switch LP's is way off, imo. If I walk out of a dispensary empty-handed, I simply walk into another one... I am not required to revisit my doctor, pre-pay for medicine sight unseen or wait for delivery. I don't use either, but the whole mmpr system is too fucked up to deal with if you have options,imo.

I never compaired them that way. I said not buying at a dispensaries or lp equals no meds.

i thought you had to go with the one your Dr signed you up for and if you didn't buy enough from that LP, they'd reduce your prescription. that's not much of a choice really.

i agree that the CC's/disp should help hook up growers to patients. that's a very good idea.

Yup you just walk out of a dispensary to another one. The competition will make things more fair once they aren't so far apart from each other. I bet in some spots one dispensary will watch another and be competitive. Free enterprise works best. Filthy schwagg growing LP's are the dirtiest group of cunts in this game. Worse than bikers to me.
Store front shopping is the way it will be sooner or later and the LP's will fade away as they should. Fuckin schwagg factories of sub par grade c weed.
This is NO comparison between LP's/mmpr and free enterprises shops.

The Hippy said:

Change Lp's...ya sure...and much to the delight of your Doctor. Do you think Doctors enjoy playing musical LP's. Why do think the Doctors aren't on board in the first place. Because they do not really want anything to do with MMJ. I knew the mmpr would annoy more Doctors than the mmar ever did. I also knew it would make it more difficult to find a doctor willing to help. In the mmar a Doctor signed once a year and then forgot about. They didn't have to act as a salesman for the LP that pays the most kickback or perks or fancy promotions. Or listen to patient whine how this LP sucks and blah blah blah. Doctors aren't exactly the most patient group imo.
So I can imagine the face you'd get coming in crying that you don't like your current LP and you want to change. And how many times would the Doc tolerate that.
CC and dispensaries allow you to walk out if unsatisfied.
LP system is schwagg forced stupidity.

BOYCOTT ALL LP's...force decent change.

They will allow LP storefronts before they allow legal dispensaries. That's kind of obvious.

Though I'm sure you will see both in the future.

Ccs/dispensaries let you walk out.. And so do LPs haha. And you probably still need a doctors signature if you don't have an ATP.
Not to mention that all the dispensary forms I've looked at are far more extensive than the LP medical document.

Why? Cause they're illegal and if they get busted they can say "but, but, b-b-but look, Jonny here has AIDS and cancer and herpes, you wouldn't put us in jail for helping sick people w-would you??"

Much respect to anyone on here who may have those conditions, I'm not talking down to the sick. I'm talking down on the dispensaries who think they're any better than your run of the mill dealer. They just sell it out of a store.

If there's a dollar to be made then there will always be shady fuckers. From LPs to dispensaries. Understand stand that I'm not sticking up for LPs. But you're just as biased if you don't see any problems with some of these operations. Some of them have gotten caught with blow and shrooms ffs.
