I just got notice from state!

[Clear Haze]

I agree alltatup. Might as well rename the country to Scamerica or Kardashia to fit what it's become.

We can not by law grow our own at this time. Law here is no growing within 25 miles (as the crow fly's) distance from a operating dispensary. Problem is EVERY dispensary in this state is24.2 miles away from anyone's property so as a result we are forced to hand over our money for inferior meds. I am sure there are many sick folks that grow anyway.(but they risk jail.) I visit a dispensary and there is always a line A LONG LINE around the building with both healthy and sick folks waiting to hand over hundreds of dollars to a dispensary owner who is on a cruise vacation somewhere spending others hard earned money (the American way?). MMMMMMM I wonder why Prop 205 failed .

I am totally growing illegally where I live!!!!!!!!! So I'm living like an outlaw on the down low, and I am being as careful about it as I can be. I never want to be part of any capitalist venture that exploits cannabis. I bought myself a growbox with a huge filter on it (so I didn't have to worry about aroma); it came with a dryer that also has a huge filter, so it's all stealth. I wish I could hang my buds the way nebula does, but I need no odor. I put blackout blinds on my grow room, and a lock on the door if anyone's working in my house.

I tell ya, if there is any way you could grow your own, you'd be in hog heaven. There is NOTHING like the quality of bud you grow yourself, harvest yourself at the correct time, dry and cure yourself, and then... well, you know the rest. I was really scared when I got my grow box: it took me a year to screw up my courage to begin to grow (last July), but it's such fun, so rewarding, and I can't recommend stealth growing enough!! Wish it didn't have to be stealth...

I'm willing to pay taxes, but I agree with dontknownuttin: charging folks $300 to get their medicine is cruel and unusual punishment

[alltatup]

I think you are totally correct: it's a scam. You don't have to "subscribe" for any other medicine. These idiots can't just decide to legalize it, so they turn it into as much of a corporate or pharmaceutical-style rip off as they can. Sorry you gotta pay that, man. Hopefully, not for too much longer.

[dontknownuttin]

BUT $300.00 FOR A CARD?. For $300.00 it should come with a brass pole with dancers AND A OPEN BAR. This card should cost no more then $10.00 TOPPS!. even WHEN YOU GET YOUR CARD THE PRODUCT AT THE STATE APROVED "NON PROFIT" DISPENCERYS SUCK, The Cannabis they give us to choose from is SECOND SHELF AT BEST AND OVER PRICED. I think there is a reason Prop 205 did not pass in Arizona I think the reason had something to do with MONEY.

[Flockshot]

I pay the same as Royal Nugs and I think it is a great deal. They tax my income, my interest, my purchases, my property, my gasoline and as far as taxes go, my hemp tax is the most reasonable.

Here in jersey we have a real ahole as Gov. We were hoping Trump would take him to Washington with him but even he's smart enough not to do that. So we're stuck with him for two more years. Can't wait to dump him such a putts

[dontknownuttin]

Will Green loan us the needed funds? I take post dated checks after all.

[Royal Nugs]

That was for recreational.

Still going thru major growth pains here in OR. Card renewal for patient is 200, 200 per patient you grow for, 180 for doctors visit, cards are good one year only, testing fee is 350 if selling to dispensaries. This is America folks, the only way it's going to be approved by states is if it doesn't cost the state anything and there's profit to be made, it is the sad reality of our capitalist economy. On the positive side I don't think everyone would be raving about cbd the way they are(at least around here, had a few people ask me to grow cbd strains asap) unless it had been brought up and advertised on the market via the legalization process. For those of us who can't grow, being able to buy products guaranteed nasty pesticides free is priceless. We've all had our share of miracle grow skunk and the headaches that come along. I can also now buy a specific strain for a specific use whether dealing with my insomnia or arthritis. Before you just got what you got and you didn't throw a feat. And the countless people not being jailed anymore, to me the state taking a cut is a small price to pay.

[dontknownuttin]

We meet wish hubby's gastro doctor January 5th. Wish us luck that he even gets approved, though I can't see why not. Crohns is on the list and he has severe. Already had three bowel resections done. I'll gladly pay $300.

I just told the doctor I was married he approved my card without delay! (painful). I have now paid the state the $300.00 fee for YEARS.

[Koro1973]

Not quite that in new Zealand but I'm sure that's what they would like...

[dontknownuttin]

Can I put the bill on Greens account?
