I heard on the Adam Dunn show that prices in Oregon have plummeted to 100 a lb. I wanted to move there till I heard that
A normal outcome of legalization here. We all saw it coming. Texas and Arizona seem like some of the most backwards in the nation next to some of the Southern bible belt states. I personally think the price will stabilize and recover eventually especially after the big farms with new money realize they cant make as much as they though.The shit you buy in dispensaries around here is truly garbage so maybe there will be a market for good medicine when people realize they are smoking garbage and poison from the so-called legitimate sources.
BTW last time I ran short from my own small grow I couldn't find any $100/ounce stuff even from trusted sources. Best I could do was 150. So, maybe it is recovering some....
Also, my family helped 2 veterans recover from severe PTSD. Both lived with us for 1-2 years each till they could function again. They served in the Middle East for a total of 10 years between them. One did really well and one is still struggling more. The struggling one had a minor brush with the law and now is banned from the medicine that saved them both. They both tried suicide several times but Cannabis was the only thing that worked.
Makes me go into a f'ing rage when I hear of the authorities trying to take it away. The system is so broken that with privately funded prisons etc. it has just become a money machine and the system is not a justice system but a cash cow for the people employed by it and the owners of the privatized parts. Now you have the "Addiction Treatment" people who want Cannabis to be an easy moneymaker for them trying to "cure" people. And in the mean time we tolerate all kinds of destruction and death from alcohol.
To me the most significant medicine for veterans is cannabis and a good dog for a companion. We also rehabilitate our own rescue dogs and sponsor them into veterans lives from our rescue. Found that a veteran with a companion animal seems much happier and it seems they are unlikely to attempt suicide.
I always respected the cops but no longer, I am beginning to hate the system with every molecule in my body. I guess I have gone from being a so-called upstanding citizen to a
radical.
I hope you find a place where you can live and grow in peace. Sorry for the rambling but this issue makes smoke come outta my ears.
