  • Buddy of mine is looking for $25k

    to invest in a business project in Michigan. Him and some friends are going to use the money for capital equipment and raw materials to grow medical marijuana which they can then sell to clinics.

    This is a great idea, right?

          I'm not sure growers will make a ton of profit.

          Me, I'd invest in a coffee shop in a heartbeat. The end of "medical" marijuana is on the horizon. We're headed, imo, toward a deriminalization policy a la the Netherlands. Just one more batch of seniors, born in the 1930s, to go.

            I am not so sure about that. In my opinion there are so many hard core middle-aged anti-drug fanatics that cannot look at this topic rationally that I doubt the decriminalization of mary jane will happen anytime in the next 20 years. It seems this country has last all capability to rationally debate any topic.

            I think this country will outlaw divorce before it decriminalizes pot.

              I don't think so. I think it'll become a state's decision option eventually, with the Feds staying removed from the issue. Same with abortion (unfortunately). Some states (CA, CO, others) have already de facto decriminalized marijuana. The momentum is there.

              Will Kansas ever do it? I doubt it, although agriculture interests could drive the issue in farm states.

              Will New York, Florida, Minnesota, Illinois decriminalize pot in the near future? I think the answer is, for me, unquestionably yes.

                California Prop 19 2010:

                Proposition 19, also known as the Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010, is a California ballot proposition which is on the November 2, 2010 California statewide ballot as an initiated state statute.

                Proposition 19, if approved by voters, will legalize various marijuana-related activities, allow local governments to regulate these activities, permit local governments (but not the state government) to impose and collect marijuana-related fees and taxes, and authorize various criminal and civil penalties.[1] Proposition 19 was certified for the November statewide ballot on March 24, 2010.[2] The official proponents of the measure are Richard Lee and Jeffrey Wayne Jones. Tax Cannabis 2010 is the official advocacy group for the initiative.

                Medical marijuana is already legal in California, due to the enactment of Proposition 215 in 1996. California's voters rejected a previous ballot initiative to legalize marijuana in 1972, when 1972's Proposition 19 was rejected by a margin of 66-33%.


                Official summary:

                Allows people 21 years old or older to possess, cultivate, or transport marijuana for personal use. Permits local governments to regulate and tax commercial production and sale of marijuana to people 21 years old or older. Prohibits people from possessing marijuana on school grounds, using it in public, smoking it while minors are present, or providing it to anyone under 21 years old. Maintains current prohibitions against driving while impaired.
