So we let the bikies and crooks reap the rewards?

Or we let corporate crooks make billions expanding the market.They want to triple the medical market in the above article. In the medical marijuana thread in the 4 corners video, they mentioned the recreational market being 10 times as big.
Crooks are limited to who their market is. Like I said before its kept to certain people.

This is one of Canadas weed companies that is already lobbying our government

Slick advertising, snoop dog affiliated, and professional. They aim at growing the market by making "weed" cool. Sound familiar?

Listen to the language of the spruikers of the companies that are set up in Aus
"Huge profits"
"Massive Returns"
"Biggest investment returns since dot com"
It's about the money. Those here that were advocates are now making mega bucks and pushing to flood the market.

Wait for legitimate thorough studies out of Canada and the US first.

IQ Consequences:

A 38 year longitudinal study from cradle, revealed the habits of those who went onto be pot users:

long term users, when tested sober had an 8 point reduction in IQ, lowered memory retention, lowered attention spans than initial.

Emotional intelligence tends to grind to a halt in early adopters.

I would think advertising would be tightly regulated, tobacco would be a model to draw good ideas from

I think waiting for legitimate thorough studies out of Canada and the US is a fair argument. What about studies that have come out of the Netherlands?

Well I was thinking about asking you along to our travelling salvation show as a stage prop, a real life display to the bethren the results of narcotic abuse, but I'm starting to think you might be up to it.

Cool. I'll charge a shilling for you and sixpence for the monkey.

Heh I just had a better thought, if you and your cobber 58 can manage a pairing I reckon I could convince management to supply a sideshow tent all of your own where you can showoff you talents and we could charge a florin and you get all the bananas you can eat. Yeah?

We are closer to the US in binge culture and monetization of substance abuse.

Have to laugh at all this discussion on the "Greens thread". Probably in the 80's it was the tree hugging lefties who started the movement and they smoked dope, but today our concerns are primarily housing, employment and the deteriorating environment.

I'm a member also of The Australian Unemployed Workers Union and we are working directly on the ground with those hurting. Those of you in front of the tellie have no idea.

Supplementing an already psychotic nation on prescription anti-depressants & anti-psychotics: In USA mental disability pensions increased 250% 1987 and 2007 = 1 in 76 people.

There was a 4000% increase in bipolar disorder drug treatment for adolescents between 1994 and 2003.

Putting trust in whoever is providing oversight of public health might be a bit optimistic.

When the Greens succeed in getting pot legalised, will a grandfather clause mean the current dealers can continue on without having a Cert 4 in drug pushing?

Nah, wouldn't suit the corporate oil system. Like solar, wind and wave combinations for power, not enough in it for the big end of town.

That degradation rate is obviously just when buried in soil I would think? Are degradation rates available for when stored on a shelf containing some product? That would indicate what type of products it would be suitable for.
