Mella, ..."One last curious note, green harvest is the number one $$$ crop in California, unfortunately it is primarily run by the Mexican Mafia. Now their trucks will be allowed with open arms over the borders to do the hauling! LOL"...
Here's the stats. Ninety eight percent of all imported cannabis comes from Mexico. One to two percent comes from Canada.
Guess what the pols and officials always scream about? You guessed it. They constantly yell about, "high potency BC bud".
Why?
Canadian pot is largely grown by thousands of individuals. Latin American illegal drugs go thru various mafia's.
Stakeholders are working with organized crime, legally laundering the drug money, estimated to be at least one trillion dollars, per year.
Google, "Drug money for beginners", if you want to learn who the drug money kingpins really are...
All the info to understand this stuff is in the public record and just a mouse click away.
My guess is that even without learning the details, anyone can figure out what going on.
The Drug War is a price support system.
It's really a shame that the public doesn't care enough about their own communities welfare to look into this very simple, easy to understand issue and make the necessary changes to our "laws" and "policies".
That's history for ya!
Still, things do seem to be changing, at least on the local and state levels, so maybe sometime, someday, we may see non-criminal drug laws and policies here.
The Dutch did it over twenty five years ago, so who knows? We may catch up to where they were a quarter of a century ago, someday.
