Our federal government will soon legalize marijuana. I’m not saying it’s a good thing or bad thing. It is so prevalent in society something had to be done.
My thoughts on the matter is that if the federal Liberals think that they are going to put these illegal pot-growing operations out of business, they must stay monetarily competitive or better with the underground prices for cannabis. Otherwise, people will not buy in the legal outlets.
If by chance the government does manage to shut down a lot of the illegal growing operations, these people who are making thousands of dollars a day are not going to start flipping hamburgers at your local fast food place. For a lot of them, all they know are drugs and big money. You will see now on our streets in large numbers the drugs that have a more detrimental effect on the people using and, in turn, on society in general.
Marijuana can be smoked or eaten. Police cannot take everybody suspected to be under the influence of pot in for blood work. Roadside licking of a litmus paper will determine if T.H.C. is in the saliva.
If our courts are not backlogged already, just wait.
