    I still can't figure out why anyone would but from a pot store. People who use it know where to get it and at a price they want to pay. Leave it to the state to fuck this thing up.

    I remember talking to a friend who said it should be legalized and have the shit taxed out of it. I said I agreed it should be legal, but why tax the shit out of it? He said something about raising revenue for the state. So basically he didn't have a good answer, just repeating the party line without thinking it through.

    Was it too difficult to just legalize it and put the normal (already too high) sales tax on it? FMFYFE.

    The Laffer Curve is laffing right now.
    When the issue to privatize alcohol was voted on, I voted no after I read the fine print. What a fucked up piece of shit law that is. I'll just continue to go to the liquor store and not pay the ridiculous new tax rate thank you... But somehow it was sold as "privatizing sales will make it cheaper"...yes, it would, if the government go there greedy mitts out of it.
    The original referendum that was narrowly defeated the first go around was much better. Then they felt they had to water it down and sweeten for state union interests, thus the steamer we got. I'm convinced the original one would have passed on the second round without changes.
    At least Costco is happy...you know, Costco the great noble corporate citizen... Fuck them..

    Keep it legal, and buy it from friends or the weird dude who always wants to talk about 9/11 conspiracy theories when you buy a bag from him... stores are retarded

    Simple fact, case closed, and end of discussion.

    You can buy in grams or quarters or whatever, who cares. Just call a delivery service, about the same price as black market. Weed stores will be epic failure as long as they're over regulated and 3x price of medical/delivery weed.

    I think you are right, but you have to consider the older, square people who don't mind paying higher prices because they feel safer going to a regulated weed store.

    I always got the impression that the people writing the initiative were negotiating with themselves and watered it down to appeal to concern trolls in Spokane and Redmond.

    How can you expect people to buy state regulated overpriced weed in this economy, on 15 bucks an hour, and without ID's?
