[Caress of Steel]

Voters in Maine passed a referendum in favor of expanding coverage and starting a distribution system!!! :rastadancing::party0033::party0023::party0045:

Bluebud, don't be in a rush- I know the dispensary thing sounds great- and let me tell ya, the first time you see a display case or shelf stocked with 40 different strains of herb, you hear angels singing. :) But dispensaries are often about greed and taking advantage of others' unfortunate conditions. Also, if Maine is going to make the regulations black-n-white BEFORE the dispensaries are out of control, they'll save MMJ patients lots of cash and headaches. Here in CO, things are out of control, and it's causing a knee-jerk reaction from the general (and generally uneducated concerning cannabis) public. I'm afraid it'll end up hurting the cause, in the end.
