    It’s not, we’re surrounded by states where recreational use is legal. Millions of dollars are heing spent just across the border, and the medical card program is a joke.

    I was just surprised to learn people are still being arrested and prosecuted.

      I’d bet it’s billions actually. One dispensary on the border of Washington and Idaho raked in $200,000 revenue in a single day.

      I think those sorts of arrests and prosecutions are more than likely police attacking individuals when there’s nothing else to charge them for.
