If all you have is a joint, then yes it is a major ripoff. I am even more offended that something that I could easily grow in my garden next to my tomatoe is illegal to grow and roll and smoke. I don't want the government to have license to take my house because a weed grows there even if I planted the thing there. That truely bothers me no end and I've been on your side of the argument when it comes to that.
I didn't say that, just the money. Glad to see you have a sense of proportinality, but it's still a Constitutional violation
