New Zealand is now hammering out legislation to legalize medical cannabis; they say not to expect dispensaries for another two years, but given that some people can't wait that long, they plan to decriminalize weed for anyone who's not going to live more than another year. Well, that's one way to address the issue...

actuarial legalization equals actual legalization imo, also this gold fringe is suspect

Sucks to learn that tv commercials about weed are as bad as Zeta hits on border mayors.

The graphs of all "drugs" plotted on axes of harm to self vs. harm to others, or immediate harm vs. long-term dependency harm are orders of magnitude more helpful than this.

Oh poo poo, this is a good opportunity to speak out too!

This chart is just legal recreational prices. The black market never hit this rate, and if you see the bubble on tax changes, that's about what WA's recreational prices were the whole time. It's only gotten about a third cheaper, which is amazing, but isn't the ridiculous slide they show. Keep in mind the steady supply of black market weed compared to the normie rush that happened in the first few months of legalization, combined with legal limits on supply. Someone unused to weed and unwilling to smoke it every day could make an ounce last six months or more, while turnaround time on crops and curing is at least five months from seed to shelf. Given this rush + crop time period, we should see another drop in prices nationwide after CA and the east coast states get in their second legal crop, roughly at about this time next year. In Texas, from 2005 to this graph's time period, prices steadily dropped from less than $20/g to about $6-10/g today. This is including another middleman or two between me and (I assume) Colorado.

In border areas that relied on lower-quality weed from Mexico, this is the time for Christmas Weed, or local sativas that had to be harvested later than other strains, packed, shipped and trafficked. This weed was often cheaper and better quality than weed the rest of the year, which may be a tradition that is about to die out.

uhhh how many people have federal possession charges and not trafficking? lol

i say swears online
Mar 4, 2005

yeah that's mostly useless on a national scale, especially if it leaves out all those convicted of trafficking and other tertiary charges to possession. later he did say that the AG should look at rescheduling cannabis which would have ten thousand times the effect

D-Pad posted:

NYT said around 6500 if I remember correctly but it also applies to any possession charges in DC since that is federal which accounts for several thousand more. Certainly better than nothing. If you are in jail on multiple charges and the possession gets dropped that still may take time off your sentence I think?

ah didn't think about DC, that makes more sense
