RE:Ass____ POLITICOS GO FYSHere you go dumb dumb. Illegal MJ was around in the states long before states started to legalize it. Here is an article for you to help educate you on what is about to happen in Canada. Your profile was created today so you get no credibility points and lots of idiot points................................ It's 2018 and marijuana remains illegal in the United States. But continued federal prohibition hasn't stopped the marijuana industry from growing like a very profitable weed. Despite what could be considered an unfriendly administration in Washington D.C., nine states and the District of Columbia now allow for recreational marijuana use and 30 allow for medical use. And more states are lining up to join the legalization wave. Pot has become big business in the U.S. The emerging industry took in nearly $9 billion in sales in 2017, according to Tom Adams, managing director of BDS Analytics, which tracks the cannabis industry. Sales are equivalent to the entire snack bar industry, or to annual revenue from Pampers diapers. That was before California opened its massive retail market in January. The addition of the Golden State is huge for the industry and Adams estimates that national marijuana sales will rise to $11 billion in 2018, and to $21 billion in 2021.

I believe we all should be able to choose what we do with our lives .So if Joe Canada wants to grow weed for himself and friends.Ottawa can stick it,Europeons have been making home made wine for decades.If you check alcoholism stats we are the ones with the problems.Let the Canopys of the world grow the medical weed industry and hemp indusry.Otherwise GO FU__ YOUR SELVES POLITICOS!
