Just like the dramatic jump in booze prices when WA ST got "privatized" last June. Now you can add about $10 (lots more if you buy the really expensive bottles like in the $40-50-60 category. The tax seems pro- rated to the $amount of the bottle and not a flat-rate) to any single- bottle purchase. Turned my world upsidedown I tell you. Now this is what I heard about the situation around the Emerald City is an OZ of the most potent pot known to man is going for $200-225. I remember back in 2007-08 that pot prices were over the $300 barrier as this current wave in cultivation of the "most extreme" was showing up everywhere. I'm still trying to figure-out "who" can afford it today. What are the "demographics". Who still wants to get stoned everyday if they could? I can tell you that one hit of the shit today will completely wipe-out your Mexican dirt-weed full of seeds for $10 and all your Columbian Gold memories @$50. It will also wipe-out your memories of Thai-sticks and Panama Red. The weed today can be "tuu strong" if you can believe that. Well since its strength has only been achieved in the last few years, I'm guessing that many smokers trying this out of retirement or abstention, are going to swear its like an acid trip...at first. A little bit goes a long ways. So I recognize the potential problems coming forth. Looks like number one there will be no oz's in the $200 range in the future. I've been involved with weed since I was 19. I made a choice in 1988 to keep my job on the railroad and went without any form of intoxication for 10 years or until I took the buyout. I know what it's like to letgo/give-up something as relaxing as a few hits off the pipe. I dont know what is more hard to decide...abortion or legalize MJ.

Makes me wonder now. But, I will not partake.

Grow your own damnit. No one gives a shit anymore, really. Just dont sell it to anyone.
The best advice of all. Couple plants... For your own use, and not ta be sold! Law enforcement oughta concentrate their efforts on catching real criminals, and putting 'em behind bars. The occasional pot smoker usually ain't bothering anybody, so leave 'em alone!
Hopefully this will be on the table as well... Growing, and posessing a small amount (to be determined) for ones own use, at some definite point!
