I’ve heard the same thing.
It seems accurate.
In the end the black market will undercut the states anyway.
They’ll find a way. Look at the street number gambling. They pay a little more than the state if you hit and they’ll extend credit.
The black market will find a way. IMO weed should not have been legalized as much as decriminalized. The states should not be selling rec drugs and people should not become criminals for using it.
I agree, but there's a big problem. Not with what you said but decriminalization.
Drugs are still illegal at the federal level. They have not been decriminalized.
Yet here we are with drugs and the cartels flooding our country, because the government that we're trusting with enforcing these laws is leaving our border wide open instead.
That what makes this WOD so laughable. If the federal government intended to stop this stuff from entering the country, they could have and they would have by enforcing their own laws.
Neither decriminalization and treatment nor the WOD is going to work until we change that.
Of course someone reply will be something along the lines of "How are we going to do that when both sides are selling us out?". I don't know, but as long as we're selling out by patronizing companies that are pushing this agenda and using illegal labor over Americans, it won't change.
