I always said the government wouldn’t be able to resist the impulse to tax it so heavily they would ensure that a black market would thrive. Ya gotta love California!

> extremely high taxes and oppressive regulations have caused the rollout to be a disaster <

Everything today’s liberals roll out is a disaster. Everything.

(Note that I said “today’s liberals” there. Classical liberals had some really good ideas. Unfortunately, there are no classical liberals left.)

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Libertarian utopia didn’t happen when drugs were legalized.

Can the local crime organizations undercutting the state growers compete with the nearly pure THC in the concentrates? Worst of both worlds, cheap, no quality control pot and expensive legal concentrates that are turning young people into very ill zombies.

I bought some THC gummies when I was out there. They were cheap. But the ‘high’ was horrible. Marijuana is a curse on young people

They complained about marijuana possession and penalties associated with it. Now that it’s legal, the penalty for avoiding taxes will likely be far harsher than any punishment previously doled out when it was illegal

You think there’s a “War on Drugs” now, just wait until they’re legal and taxable.
