@trees What are y’all’s thoughts on this mass legalization? Don’t get me wrong, I’m verrrryyy pro green. Been a life changer. But I have been seeing things that the big backers for this are the alcohol and tobacco industries. Personally I want them as far away from my green as possible. I don’t like the idea of big business and green. Am I looking at this wrong? I like my mom and pop shop. Sure it’s a bummer when they don’t have what I want but I’ve some of the best shit this way.

We live in a capitalist country ruled by capitalists. It was always gonna work out this way.

So, yeah, not ideal, but at least many places are also including expungement clauses.
