Washington voters approved legalized marijuana


Grapefruits

Recommended Posts

Next up: Crystal Meth.

'No wai.'

'Yeah? Well that's what they said about pot.'

When it comes to sin taxes, Where do you draw the line? Prostitution? Underground gambling including dog fights etc.? Happy pills? Crack cocaine? Whatever.

Certainly gangsters don't want to lose all these markets to the government, but if pot is legalized, where are these guys going to turn for their profits? Likely harder drugs. Like crystal meth.

In the end, it's a person's choice. You're probably not going to switch from weed to crystal meth. But your kids might be pushed into it a bit harder down the road. We'll see.

The natural reaction of stoners from this province will be enthusiasm for this vote, but there's also an ugly lining. Our domestic industry can't help but suffer with this jurisdiction next door liberalizing their marijuana laws. We will lose market share and skilled workers because conditions down south have just become better. The quality of our local efforts to produce the best dope can't help but suffer by comparison.

I for one don't think we should be celebrating the fact that our closest competitor, geographically, just got a huge advantage over us. It doesn't mean anything good for the marijuana industry here in British Columbia.
