Of course the police will police it! Just like how they police against prostitution, gambling, yaba trafficking, and every slight whiff of corruption in the LoS! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantee this card would be accepted by the government 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it's just a placebo.. Medicinal weed isn't neutered, it's natural low THC weed that is used for medicinal purposes rather than getting stoned. And there is no US-wide policy, it varies by state, in terms of legality and medicinal THC threshold. And there is significant variation in medical cannabis laws from state to state, including how it is produced and distributed, how it can be consumed, and what medical conditions it can be used for Getting stoned isn't hard, just buy and ingest, but it does interfere with one's memory and intellect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post koolbreez Posted May 13 Popular Post Share Posted May 13 The one thing that Thailand does, and this is another good example, is let the free market work. The last time I remember was with rubber trees, and the latex market. The price went up, so everyone planted more rubber trees, and flooded the market, cutting the price way down, almost below production costs. Now it is the same free market being let work again with this agricultural product. Not many are aware that cannabis is now an export product, with more kilos being exported than are consumed in Thailand, as more countries legalize it, Germany just recently. Don't be fooled by the propaganda, and face saving that is going on now. If they were actually going to recriminalize it, they would be doing it immediately. Also, don't be fooled that it isn't already being studied from every aspect. Now the first full year of tax filings have been completed so the actual financials, and how big of an industry it is is known on paper. Now all the propaganda is being spread to give another full year of data collection in the drawing up of the rules and regulations to control the industry. Things like dispensary opening and closing hours. Not selling during religious holidays, and those type of elements. It isn't going anywhere. The last year provided enough positive data that it justified at least one more year of research, until right after next year's tax filing date. That is no coincidence. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambum Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 (edited) "Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul announced a formal study will be conducted before any changes to cannabis's legal status" How long do "formal studies" take? I foresee many, many meetings ahead - enough time for Anutin to swell his coffers by quite a few million baht - whatever the outcome!

bristolgeoff Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Most people agree the decision to make it legal a good move,my friend said cambodia has it legal to.Many parts of the world make it legal and the country or gov makes tax or whatever on it.Medical reasons work too for pain.Reversing the law on weed will be a error and if someone is looking into it maybe they will not make the mistake in reversing that decision 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmatix Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Cannabis farmers are pushing for decriminalisation because legalisation made the price drop precipitously. I am not sure how recriminalisation will put their hash cookies back in the jar and get prices back up again. Definitely won't do much for government tax revenue collection. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
