Not enough for you to subsist on; gotta buy the taxed weed.
DeleteThe article said "three mature and three immature plants".
Also, interestingly enough, cities could opt out of retail sales. Shades of "Wet" and "Dry" counties here in the South!
I predict it won't bring in anywhere near the $350M Cuomo thinks it will.
New York legislators haven't suddenly got hip. This is about licensing and tax revenue.
ReplyDeleteIt always is.
I was in NYC last year, just before the flu & it's publicity closed the world down. We stayed in Manhattan for a couple of nights and walked around. There were vans parked in the street that were openly selling pot, more than one too! I asked how they could do that.... I was told that it had been decriminalized.
ReplyDeleteIt was spendy but it was out in the open and they were lots of vehicles out there selling pot.
Pot will become the "moonshine" of the 21st century. Damn rev-noors!
ReplyDeleteIf NASCAR came out of moonshine runners, what sport ya think will come out of this ?
DeleteIt's all just a scam, never trust the government, grow your own stash and keep your mouth shut about it
