Cap the potency of pot (link)

Satyaban They have medical and rec menus, one side of the area is for med, the other half of the room is for rec. I don't know anymore if prices or quantity limits are the same, I haven't looked lately. Medicine in IL has a 1% sales tax - pharmacy or farmacy. One dispo gives disabled ppl a discount, both give veterans 15%. I couldn't have been a veteran bc of my rare disease, and I have less income. Every generation including my brother and mother served. Med card was $100/year but since I'm SS age now it's $50/year whether you buy 1, 2 or 3 years at a time. Caregiver card is $25/year, so they can go make a run for you. Premium 1/8ths are $60, 65, 70 without a sale. Concentrates cost up to $90/gram. It's gross.
 
We only have med here, My state could be identified if I mentioned to much about rates and I still practice a few habits from a different time, but the highest $ for an eighth I have was $ and that was unusual. Last week I bought 2 eighths, a 5 joint pack, a half gr. of vape, and a gr. of bubble hash for $273 with discounts. Some dispensaries offer loyalty points which can really accumulate.
 
I know it sounds crazy to some, but at my station in life it is not a burden because I have more than the amount of money I need. I also spread a few bucks a month to causes that are important to me. I am growing for a hobby and for personal growth.
 
That's more than here after discounts, not lowballing either, regular prices on average. Unfortunately I have to jump on sales but gas is negating the deals. If I make a vet appt then it's a stop on the way home. Pug goes in the dispo with me.
 
I think those prices are awesome, I don't think I can beat them growing at home with increasing energy expenses.
 
Here are some prices:
Big Thai 27% $30
Poochie Love 36% $50
Durban Poison 24% $25
Cart
Jack Herer 86% $45 1g
GCS 83% $35 1/2g

Bubble hash 66% $60 1g

The Poochie Love is down to $50 1/8 I have seen it as high as $65.
Poochie Love is what I have been smoking for months and I have not tired of it. I smoke more than ever because it is my main pain reliever, Poochie Love has been consistent so I stick with it along with a vape and bubble hash.
Where I live there is no sales tax on food or medicine so I don't think there is a sales tax on it, I know it is bad but I don't read many receipts unless I am surprised by a total. I do wish I could buy it by 1/2 ounce and save but they don't do that.
To return to the topic, If there were to be a cap and roll back on THC levels in my state don't stand between me and the onion.
 
They've finally started selling ounces here but I'm low on funds right now. Those are prices above are all better than here, except they just started selling bubble hash, it's $50/gr. Tell me about Big Thai? Wild Thai, supposed sativa landrace, is my pain strain but I can't find it. I was growing it, got really sick, the grow thirsted to death. I need to start over but it'll take a while before I can use it. I keep trying other sativas but none help me the same.
 
I think they should cap the limit of THC in the same way they have done for alcohol- when it reaches a natural cap of 100%, that’s enough 😇 Then just like with that life ruining, car crashing, health destroying socially acceptable drug alcohol, you can pick your own strength Anything from giggles to sleeping and no life wrecks!

We are talking politicians here so the fact of the matter is once they pull their heads out for a good breath and the lifers die off, we will likely be darn close to 100% already before ANYTHING happens on a federal level. We are talking the people who patented a plant process for medical purposes and then still have the audacity to say it has NO medical properties and incarcerate it’s citizens for possession of that product. BS IMHO

I don’t think it’s anything to lose sleep over.

I have to tread lightly because we may have all types here on this forum, but there are some states I wouldn't visit or move to if they gave smoke away. When politicians saw the money that was all they needed to know to change laws. It has nothing to do with medicine or freedom, only $$$. I don't understand how growing a rather wild plant can be illegal either.
 
As Jack Herer wrote so long ago, the emperor has no clothes on: the hypocrisy and ulterior motives (riches always mattered far more than freedom) that have always driven the US continue to do so today. It's not difficult at all to understand what's going on with the politicians and everyone else involved in these huge health scams that seem to structure Amurican life anymore--all of the reasons why US population is getting sicker and sicker, more and more obese, more addicted to opioids... And all this stink over cannabis? Puh leese. It's too obvious for anyone with open eyes--but who's not in a zombie state in front of the tv eating junk food--that this culture is allowing its psychotic, reality-denying impulses to rule. For what? For profits, as always. Not for peoples' health.
