    As long as weed is illegal in some states you will see a black market like this legalize and Tax it nation wide and undercut the black market by charging less. It’s pretty f*cking simple to deal with

    No issue nonsense, anti marijuana propaganda.



  3. Sh Hu on November 12, 2021 at 12:13 pm

    California f’d this up so bad…MAKE IT EASIER TO CONDUCT LEGAL BUSINESS!!! Why is this so hard?



  4. Juan Doe on November 12, 2021 at 12:14 pm

    Well, when the tax is 27% you will still have a black market.
    You can buy an 1/8 for about $25 before taxes on the cheap end at a shop or buy an oz for $150 tax free on the black market.
    No brainer for something consumed daily as much as alcohol.

    Done by someone without a conscious, a member of the ‘it’s all about me’ generation’. Those kinds of people are everywhere today, I even see them in this thread.



  18. Alan Malcheski on November 12, 2021 at 12:29 pm

    More anti pot propaganda. Why is NBC party to this?



  26. james vanderbeek on November 12, 2021 at 12:39 pm

    The earth doesn’t get poisoned…tf?

    The earth gets poisoned by gasoline fueled cars….look at the smog in L.A

    The earth is at risk more by gasoline emissions..

    Technology is available to make cars fueled on solar power….but these fat cats womt allow it to be made because they lose thier fortune with gasoline.



  27. Stephen Brown on November 12, 2021 at 12:39 pm

    Come on fellows the present administration is focused on prisoner release and judicial attacks on the 2nd amendment they have no resources for minor offenses like a residential marijuana grow house.



  35. Barry Thacker on November 12, 2021 at 12:45 pm

    I had friends that did this in the south very illegal they would tear houses up. They paid me to fix the houses back up so nobody would know. They rented big nice houses for only 1 year and they would move on. They had the best weed:)



  36. adhd trader on November 12, 2021 at 12:45 pm

  37. iga ninja on November 12, 2021 at 12:46 pm

    Be forewarned!!! A Tawdry society = A lawless society = great danger!!!



  43. David King on November 12, 2021 at 12:54 pm

    I work with an electricity company. Because a transformer is "strained" and "explode" a fuse connecting the transformer the powerline would first blow preventing such a disaster. Guy doesn’t know what he is talking about. The illegal wiring of the house is what causes the fires.



  44. Anna Nuie on November 12, 2021 at 12:55 pm

    it would be better to grow in the empty buildings not homes for ppl. its not a crisis to be a farmer.



  45. Calimangrower 1 on November 12, 2021 at 12:59 pm

    Million dollar operation under the table to boot but they missed rent payments. Get out of here lol



  46. Savage Gun bunny on November 12, 2021 at 1:01 pm
