IMO, legalization isn’t the solution. It paves the way for big canna, which will put the nail in the coffin for most growers who actually care about quality. Deregulation, which is what we should be shooting for, would allow cannabis to remain a cottage industry, providing local jobs, and fostering a farm to table relationship between producers and consumers.
Legalization comes with more rules and regulations that help prevent anyone without corporate backing from gaining a foothold in the industry. If you look at how these corporate-backed growers/dispensaries operate, you’ll see rampant pesticide use, slave wages, and dishonest safety testing. Many will even irradiate their harvests before testing to ensure compliance.
No one should have to go to jail for growing flowers, but ill-planned legalization would be detrimental in many ways. It isn’t growers or stoners writing the laws, it’s the suckers of corporate cock, so you can guess who the legislation would benefit the most. We only have one shot at this, and it may already be too late, but it’s something we should fight for til the end.
