Since mj was legalized in OR, and my county is one of the highest pot growing areas (was before, too) no one can find anyone to do any work. They make a lot more than this article says trimming, being a security guard or growing it. It’s “legal” but hardly any grow operations are permitted, so it’s still mostly black market. Crime sky rocketed, too. Lots of shady types moved in to grow it.

No LE presence out in the rural areas, I live in one, so I see it. It’s not a pretty sight.

My good FRiend, your story should be a sound-bite ad for every state considering legalization.

Hoping you stay safe.

What county? I find it hard to believe that legal weed changed things very much.
