If the larger nations pick up on that it will be a price changer for the recreational users as well as the MMJ users. Which means more stress on the illegal trade. Also, a side effect on that will be more cocaine and heroin imported in to the U.S.. I do not like that part for obvious reasons, but, it has already started happening. With the higher grades being grown here now the cartels can't compete. Now if the prices are lower, the only place they have to move is the other money makers for them listed above. That is a serious problem and one that the government is looking at right now. So, if they quit taking pay offs , spending money on putting small time mmj or mj users in prison, they can get taxes by legalizing and spend it to stop those ass holes from taking a foothold. Put some SERIOUS pressure on the top layers of that trade. Makes me crazy.
It is not like it is that complicated. GLTA
