Umm... and what I'm I not talking about? Do I have to like quote the starting post, and only talk on that subject? Is that like the RULES of GFY or forum whoring or something?

You brought up some way that it would be more illegal.. that the gov was going to make it worse. Right now, pot and crack - are on the same scale as murder.

Most people in jail are in for very small, personal, amounts... We are discussing whatever is brought up on any area of the subject..

The Gov didn't allow any part of this, the Companies just did it.. then it was found out they did it, they paid for it. The regulated it because it has killed millions of people. Pot, doesn't do that....

The source is Canada, Amsterdam and other Countries that legalized it or don't care. The cost of pot is low.. hellish low. You buy an oz here of good shit for $400 - That's about the most expensive pot in the fucking world.
And demand.. Dude, I can guy pounds of the best bud in 24 hours in almost every state in America. The MORE Cali has introduced it into the medical system - The less dry the ENTIRE U.S. has gotten.
Source, ask anyone that lives in the South how hard it was to buy pot 5 years ago vs. today.
