Why don't you find out how much regulations cost to start a micro Brewery that sells to the public?

I am ware of the regulations.
Yet micro-brewers still exist.

What is your point?

There will always be a market for high quality marijuana.
If you do not think that is true there is no point in talking to you.

NO

Because this kind of shit is what you are going to get if you get your wish of Commercial pot.

You all think your going to be the JP Morgan of pot when it goes full legal and the fact is you will be regulated out of business by big money
you can't regulate top notch, high quality cannabis out of business. the stuff sells itself.

Got a license?
Has the Fda verified content?
Has the USDA inspected your operation?
Are you in compliance with local zoning?
Located near a school?
What about required security?
Print warning labels yet?

You should switch to indica, you seem really paranoid.

With legal weed there will be increased competition on the supply side, that's a given. The consumer demand side and the "legal" supply side will eventually intersect. It will not be a forever fixed price, there will be fluctuations, but this market driven price point will occur. This natural market adjusted price, will go down from present levels, even for premium weed. Cheesy had that part right, but the nobody can sell weed came from his blowup doll wife...dumb unenforceable idea.

What Uruguay is trying to do is eliminate the criminal market for marijuana by making it artificially low.
Crazy or just so crazy it might work?

Show me one area of the country were the local municipalities DO NOT limit the number of liqour licenses for any kind of establishment.
What makes you think it will be any different with weed? And as to your HIGH quality market? When the big players get in your stuff will be considered Shwag

What about the price gouging at the despensaries. Those places are making insane profits. Their markups are astronomical. They alone are responsible for the escalating prices we are seeing.

cannabis doesn't grow any differently if you throw more money at it.

if it did, people would literally be crumpling up $20 dollar bills and throwing them at their buds.

no, not they alone.

they would fail without customers walking through the door and handing them cash.

stop doing that and they will have no choice but to come down.

It's called research and for some reason throwing money in agriculture seems to pay off. Do you have a lab and a couple million to genetically modify weed?

Didnt think so

for some reason, i don't think splicing goat testicle DNA into the barney's farm LSD i am growing could possibly improve the high.

but then again, duck penis DNA might make it grow a bit faster.

I bet they could easily genetically modify the gene that produces thc and cbd

All it would take is full legalization and a commercial market

Normally large scale production of any product leads to a decrease in quality, not an increase. I think this would be true for weed too. The highest quality product will come from small growers who take great care of their plants, not giant corporate mj farms. (IMO)

In the end the consumer will buy what they want at the best price available to them. That's how a market works, consumers drive it, government can only skew it.
More people will grow their own too.
