#6  I still buy my weed illegally in Ga.. But it all comes from Cali. Cheaper buying here illegally than it is legally in Colorado.The taxes are extremely high.

#5  The question was posited how many of those wildfires were started at illegal MJ farms?

This was all pretty well gamed before the first store opened. Part of it, is suddenly there was a lot of cover for 'doing it on your own' because normal.

#3  similar situation in Colorado

regulation has made legal pot more expensive than the illegal kind;

a big problem with private sale of marijuana is that even the regulated kind has dozens of chemicals with not well researched properties; smoking it adds dozens more chemicals

all this while the legal sale of cannabinol, a.k.a., CBD has increased from 500M in 2018 to projected 1.6 B in 2022

...Wish it was that easy. I would direct your attention to California, where the legal weed program has been so well run that the state is trying to bail them out.


The problem with legal weed is that since governments gotta govern, they also gotta regulate and tax - which means that the illegal operations, unburdened by such minor concerns, will always have a price advantage.
