Well idk, we had some kind of open market here in Canada and it just ended up with a few big players, a million bankruptcies and weed for under $10 CAD a gram.

In my experience there is no overlap between cannabis and tobacco users. Cannabis users dont smoke because cigarettes cause cancer. There was never a link published around cannabis & cancer because no research even existed!

I live in a legalized Marijauna country and there is no black market. The prices in the legal stores are actually lower than the former black market prices.

I have smoked cannabis for 20 years and I have never known anyone fall into the "cannabis-to-cocaine pipeline."

A lot of these arguments about "needing" immigration to support aging populations are just thinly-veled neoliberal excuses.

What???? Why would we have to do that? Runaway depopulation is the biggest issue facing the world? We have billions of people on the planet. GPD not going up is NOT an existential threat.
