And genetically engineered to decrease potency? I could envision a situation with very stiff fines for growing pot without a license.
Did the pro-drug crowd really think they'd get legalization without government control? What were they smoking?
Probably genetically engineered to have a variety of potencies, which already happens with pot and cigs. Not everybody wants the big buzz.
I’d guess it’ll go similar to home brew rules. Depending on the state you’re in you’re allowed to make certain amounts of certain types of booze, mostly you can’t sell without a license (some places you can sell very little), some places you can’t even gift.
I think the only people who expected a free for all were the anti-legalization crowd. All the pro-legalization people I know consider regulation and taxation to be part of what they want. Turning drugs into a profit center for the government is better than them being a budget black hole, and if alcohol and smokes tell us anything the BEST way to keep kids off drugs is to sell them at the liquor store.
