The Oregon government wants the biggest threat to legalization to be medical patients. They want to restrict and police sick people while anyone can grow 4 plants. It went from 6 in flower and 16 under a foot tall and a foot wide to now just being 6 total.
Now the fees. Have shot up. Only benefit from the medical card is to not pay taxes on a bag of weed. Which you are getting charged 300$+ for an ounce of medicine that's not cured and dried like crap. And the local news makes a medical patient the bad guy. They are the reason so much weed is exported. Not thinking about the fact that the exporter is breaking the law. Not a patient.
But yeah in Washington less than 28 grams is legal. 28-39 grams is a misdemeanor and 40+ is still a felony!
Oh now you can get a DUI for your medication even if your not under the influence.
Oh Washington State only has a tiny percentage of the original 86% tax on legal weed actually going to schools and roads.
But, the biggest part goes into a political slush fund.
No taxes for the government! Too much administration and no care for the people.
Yikes! That's "legalization" for you! And to think, Oregon is considered a success story... I'd hate to see the failures...
