They're breaking some Federal Law??
Regardless of what you may believe there is a hierarchy in our government, Federal is above State that is above Municipalities. Since the feds still have it as a schedule 1 drug, it is still illegal regardless what the state says.
More fucked up, who owns the patent on cannabis? The government.
::shrugs:: they got it i guess cause they are the government, who is going to tell them no?
This is all mute
until the government can make money nothing will change.
We need to somehow tell the government what we are willing to give, to be able to have access to Medical Marijuana.
Maybe in the form of permit fee to grow.
If sold thru a store front dispdispensaryre would be all kinds of taxes they should pay at least what everyone elesElses charged that have a buisbusinessthat city.
Make it were people can be care givers to no more than 4 paitepatients time.
Put some lawyers and hippies that give a shit in a room and fill it with weed and munchies and see what comes out in a few weeks......
Its the supremacy clause. Federal law will always override state law. Federal marriage laws prohibit gay marriage, even though states pass laws allowing it. The founding fathers didnt want states to have power like small nations. Of course, the federal government isnt always right, but since federal law is stronger than state law, it allowed for a more centralized government. That is also strong, (big picture wise)
Well does any body know what the Tabacoo Industry pays the Feds??
I know its only pot and i totally agree with you, however, its the principle of the thing. If the federal govt allowed states to carry out laws that go against federal laws, they are giving them carte blanche to do as they wish with no repercussions.
Yes Colorado limited caregivers to only having 5 patients.
Also in Colorado the General Fund took something like $5 or $9 million dollars from the registry fund. They are profiting even if they don't want to admit it.
Thats true. But someday somewhere the People will rebel against the government.
