If a company can market killer weed cigarettes for a reasonable price, why bother growing? I started growing only because it's illegal. Would I have started growing under legalization? Maybe, because I enjoy growing very much. But I smoked a long time before I seriously grew.

| | When I hit 21 drinking wasn't quite as fun. But, I've got a whiskey coke right next to me now. doesn't mean I quit.
I'm guessing that growing would be more like micro brewing beer (which I've done). Something real connoisseurs of weed would do to both save a couple bucks and have fun.
One thing most people would agree on... if it was legalized it would be way better. Even if it lost a bit of the "taboo" appeal.

| | I think it may turn off the younger generation from growing, which in a way is good, but it scares me. I would hate to see pot processed and treated as tobaco is, not to mentioned taxed :P
but for the people who grew before, I think theyll have even more fun!!!! it would be such a thrill to be able to come out and grow legaly, it would be hella funny too, people would probably have it in their front lawns, probably a few plants in front of police stations :P
25% of US states tax pot, and or all other illigal drugs, nobody pays it, but if it were legal you would have to, the tax for cocain in a state or two is $200 a gram!!!
I highly doubt pot or anything would be taxed so highly if it were legal... would it? |

| | It wouldn't matter what rate cannabis were taxed. Once black market pressure is removed, pot's pretty worthless. The basic value of legal weed could be taxed enormously, like tobacco, and still be far cheaper than under prohibition. Alcohol dropped in price immediately upon repeal of prohibition.

Street weed and cigarettes are comparable in price, no question. But tobacco would be far more expensive if it were outlawed.

| | this is such a no brainer fuckin question it almost irritates me. If your asking yourself a question like this you shouldn't be smoking at all.
point is we should all be able to grow whatever the fuck we want as long as were not selling or harming anyone one else in the processe
some of us don't even have reliable dealers and go thru insane droughts. why should your only legal (available) options for stress pain reliefe be alcohole or tobacco.
I guess this question is the same as drinking underage cuz your parents and media tell you not to. If the only reason your smoking or drinking or taking whatever is to rebel, you need to stop and educate yourself, and learn some control / responsibility. |

Of course I want weed legalized. Of course smoking would be as fun, but I was mainly talking about growing. I think I would keep growing, I would constantly try to develop better and better strains.

| | only reason I don't like booze is it poisons the body and makes you sick as fuck with too much. I like growing the plant, I think out of all the plants its the most pretty and useful.. being into more natural meds I'd have a field of the stuff if I could. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
