The small growers here in Trinity County are making hundreds of thousands of tax free dollars a year and don’t give a whole lot back to the community, if anything at all.

Surely they must spend a lot of that money at local businesses? I've heard that the economies of several counties would just collapse without weed money.

They spend money like water at local businesses, but the abundance of cash is also causing local inflation.
Parts and materials that last year were within my budget are now out of reach, without an 80 mile (one way) trip to Redding or Red Bluff, fuel costs money and this is California so it costs a lot of money.
