For real. I’m in the South so any talk of legalization is basically a non-starter BUT the only type of legislation I would support would need to have provisions for home cultivation. If cannabis is made legal for recreational consumption there is no reason why I shouldn’t be able to grow one or two plants for myself and either keep or give away what I want to.
Can you imagine if Anheuser-Busch went after every dude with a home brew setup in their garage? It would be insanity.
If we let corporations dictate to policy makers on this we’ll all end up with a shittier product at higher cost. There’s a reason why the black market is still thriving even in legal states.
One of the barriers to getting any kind of serious legalization is the intractable dispute over homegrow being allowed or not. Big cannabis companies want to stop this at all costs. I don’t get it. It’s not like the majority of retail customers are gonna grow high quality strains.
