Using the term manicured bud, i can only draw one conclusion from that.

"Up in Smoke. Is where my money goes.
In my lungs and sometimes up my nose
When troubled times, begin to bother me
I take a toke
And all my cares, Go up in smoke"

Legalize it all!!!!!

1. South American Countries would clean up a tad bit because all the illegal drug cartels would be legal Corporations.

2. You could tax the ever loving **** out of it.

3. For all those that think everyone would go around getting stoned or high and nothing would get done your way off. Those who smoke will continue too smoke, those who done wont.

4. I can think of alot of negatives but none of them that dont already exist with things such as booze or cigarettes.

That's trimmed, Torque. In Laytonville the going rate for trimming is 25.00 an hour, plus as much pot as you want to smoke. One of the four "restaurants" up there had to shut down when their staff quit en masse and went to work manicuring buds, and you'd be surprised how many grannys and grandpas either grow a few plants to supplement their Social Security or work trimming other peoples' pot.

About $25AUD/gram down here, or $80 for a quarter ounce, $150 for a half, $280 for an ounce and about $2500~$3000 for a pound, all depending on just how much you are buying at the time...the more weight, the less cost per gram.
When you take into account that $1AUD is about 0.75 $US, it seems weed is relatively cheap around here.
Just for interest's sake, it takes roughly one tenth of a gram to get a reasonably heavy user 'stoned' on this stuff, if you smoked a whole gram in a timespan of less than ten minutes, you would go white, start dribbling, and melt into the couch. Vommiting, paranoia and fits of uncontrollable giggling to follow.

Or so I hear anyway, wouldn't know personally

Maybe a few of those 'get a skin full of booze and beat the missus senseless' type people would just have a bong and sit back with a "sure honey, of course I'm listening..' instead.
That alone would make decriminalising the stuff worth while IMHO.

If you take a community that's only two industries were fishing and lumber, then you destroy the fishery and legislate the timber companies to death, you get a County where the average income is about 32k. What do you expect people to do, given the permissive stance from County authorities? I'd estimate 20% of the "everyday, normal citizens" up here grow dope in their back yards to supplement their income.

Geez.... That's almost 10$ per gram. Can that be right, I'd imagine the street price would be at least twice of that? Expensive hobby..
