“...That will happen at the expense of other “equity” applicants—minority groups favored with half of legal pot licenses under New York’s law...”

So half of the marijuana licenses are reserved for ‘minority groups’? Do they make up 50% of the state’s population? How does this square with the “equal protection of the laws” clause of the 14th Amendment?

Gov is our pusher, our bartender the big pimp. The hand is always out, nothing is done without raining shekels upon the king.

I hear legalized marijuana in Colorado has turned out to be a big flop.......so what’s that definition of insanity again?

Why not give the licenses to street hookers? They are already used to paying someone else 90% off the top. Instead of paying a pimp, they will pay the state and city governments.

Was always in favor of decriminalization, didn’t want the govt. involved. I’m not all that concerned about societal minutia like this, anymore, though.

I’ve been growing pot hydroponically for 30 years. The growing systems, seed stock, lighting, and nutrients are now A-1. For what a couple grams cost at a pot shop anyone can grow several ounces.
