For arguements sake lets say good kind(quality) buds costs about 50/8th to most people.

That 50 for 3.5 grams includes costs of growing (4-8 dollars) plus transportation and preparation costs(10-15$) and finally risk/profitabbly costs (20-30$).

Well if you remove the risk factor from the equation (atleast the legal risk factor) you can probably diminish that last risk/profit cost to around 10-15

Making the new price of quality buds about 35$/8th. Now add the 50 dollar per Oz. from the state (6.25 per 8th) and u get a total new avg. cost for quality buds about $41.25

Weed will get cheaper and I know if it goes the way of alcohol I’m going to wait in line for those growing licenses.

So I would like to know what people think about
the legalization of marijuana for ages 25 and older in the state of california…

RE: Melissa,
- – Even though there are some who recommend,
or those who would themselves
voluntarily forego cannabis until well past legal adulthood,
when they’re better established, there are others who would opt for it being legal at age 21, or even sooner.

- – If a kid can be sent to possibly die in a foreign conflict at age 18 as a draftee into military service,
why would they want to be required to wait another 3 years to participate in something much LESS dangerous than war?

(Personally, from past observations, alcohol is closer to being as dangerous as war, rather than cannabis).

— And considering the danger(s) of alcohol relative to cannabis,
the legal drinking-age ought to be twice, (or perhaps even three), times that proposed for ganja!
(42-50yrs to 63-70yrs old, instead of the present 21yr drinking-age). :p

…This is a plant that is from nature.
All plants that can be used for medicine should be legal.
We can use corn, beans, coffee, and tobacco but not marijuana.
This plant may have been around before humans?
It may be here after us if we don’t get our act together.

RE: Hydro’ Forum,
- I agree with you, EXCEPT,
I would include ALL PLANTS, period!

(There are much deadlier plants that have been, and still are used as
food, {potatoes, rhubarb}, and in medicine, {foxglove, vinca, deadly nightshade}, for example).

- – IF ALL plants were placed in nature for our survival,

(Each kind / species CUSTOM-MADE before us, to meet / fulfil some
SPECIFIC biochemical need of the human body,

(Including proper functioning, structural building / repair,
enzymatic / catalytic processes, and energy needs)),

THEN wouldn’t the prohibition,
(legislated extinction, really),
of EVEN ONE of these plant-species, in essence,
be making LIFE ITSELF illegal?
