Interesting, guess who loves the cannabis the most in America?

Oklahoma is a good representation of a state that has been positively influenced by legalizing marijuana. I live in Canada, and legalizing changed this country. First of all, new businesses like mine appear to be based on producing marijuana that are paying taxes. It is improving the economy of the country. Also, there appeared some work for IT developers. For example, I am using the software from parsi.co, which help to run my business. It is made especially for marijuana businesses to improve the quality of products.

Shortly after I got out of the Army I met a young lass in Iowa City that was from Oklahoma. She turned m on to several things that made my first summer home pleasurable including her older brother's friends in Mason Profit and his homegrown hybrid from grand daddy's farm near Enid.
Sounds like I need to place a chain of my extraction business in Oklahoma. Wax and Shatter sell for far more and local mom and pops can’t afford a million or more for equipment to make it. That’s why we’re flush with money in the Caribbean. Not too many of the big growers and those that are there are too busy shipping to Canada and the EU to bother with the local Caribbean or US market.
In the U.S., the use of marijuana for non-medical purposes is legal in only four states (including the District of Columbia). Still, in fact, it is widespread throughout the country. Geographically, the greatest interest in the plant is in the West and Northeast. As for places where cannabis is not favored, they are mostly agricultural and southern states. Utah, for example, breaks out of the general trend for western states, and Wisconsin, despite its proximity to smoky Michigan, is one of the last places in the ranking. We have a local Brampton dispensary where people can safely come in and purchase a certain amount. Most people buy them for therapeutic and procedural referrals.

Back in the day Mason Profit was one of my favorite bands,.. Saw the Talbot bothers live numerous times.
Saw them the first time at Coe College and I too was hooked. Eugene Pratt spoke to me.
Good tune,.. Saw them first time at Loras College in Dubuque, IA,... I recall that Terry had a great voice, while his brother John was an amazing musician,.. The bass player, I think his name was Tim, while quite good never seemed to confident enough to play facing the audience.
I started using CBD oil last year after I broke my leg at a ski resort. The fracture area hurt greatly, especially in bad weather, so I started looking for a pain reliever. A friend recommended CBD oil; at first, it worked great, but over time the effect seemed to dull. I decided to see if there was anything better. In short, it's all about the raw material, and if you use gummies, the effect is better. They contain more cannabinoids and terpenes than processed oils or flowers. I usually buy at https://www.tillmanstranquils.com/product/cbd-gummies-1500mg-melatonin/.

I saw them and Black Oak Arkansas at least a couplethree times a month for a good year or so back then. I also saw a group called Enoch Smokey a good dozens times during that same period.
A friend of mine from grad school at Iowa told me his farmer dad back in Kansas made more each year from his off the books cannabis harvest than all of his wheat and sunflower crops combined. I don’t doubt it either.

I think that’s totally fair. It is a very intense and not always pleasant (especially to non users) smell.

I've always found this amusing. The interstates in Georgia are filled with billboards for strip clubs and rub and tug massage places.
You can also marry a high school sophomore in most of the bible belt states.
Much tougher to scratch out a living selling CDs out of a crate and performing before working class drunks on the dive bar circuit than collecting salvation donations and selling miracle trinkets to reformed drunks/drug ddicts (not to mention the more wealthy and anxious seniors) on the guest speaker church circuit.
I have a weird theory, that everyone is going to think I'm batshit because its so counterintuitive.
I think there are signs of a subtle reversal of poles along issues of what have been been sort of traditional "morality" issues and what party wants to police your private life. Traditionally of course the Republicans have wanted to control people do in their bedrooms and watch on TV in the privacy of their own homes, and Democrats have been the party of libertines (obviously, I'm using broad stereotypes).
This is totally hidden under the Roe/Dobbs issue which seems to totally oppose my point, but deep below, I think there is an undercurrent of a shift. I think its about 10 years from breaking into the open, but if you look at the very online and young left, they are becoming increasingly sex-negative, and consider almost any enjoyment in life as a shameful embracing of capitalism. They are adapting very strict rules about what you can and should enjoy.
Meanwhile, the right is continuing to shift their base to the working classes, especially whites but also minorities, and less about 55 year old married white-collar managerial types that need to try to portray their upstanding moral wasp discipline at all times.
Essentially, I think subtly we're at the start of a realignment where "naggy, schoolmarmish, controlling, moralistic killjoys" becomes more synonymous with the left, and "here for a good time, party naked" becomes more synonymous with the right.
I know it sounds crazy, but I can see signs of it breaking through here and there. It's not going to be a straight line, and there are still going to be times and places on the right where the bible holds sway. But I think it's happening, and on the way you're going to see weird contradictions like this Oklahoma/weed thing.
I know that it's trendy to predict that the right is moving toward instituting some kind of fundamentalist Christian theocracy. But I don't think that's really where we're headed, and possibly quite the opposite. I think a lot of voters on both sides are going to adapt or find themselves displaced.

I think what you're noticing is that the right is, and always has been tremendous hypocrites.
Just like with alcohol and sex before it, same with weed. Fine for me, but not for thee.
No, I considered that, and actually referenced it with "married white-collar managerial types that need to try to portray their upstanding moral wasp discipline at all times."
Hypocrisy has always been there. (And thank god that Democrats aren't hypocrites and never violate their own Covid rules or fly private jets to vacations etc).
Nope, I'm talking about something different.
Not that I'm not expecting you to be able to see or even consider anything nuanced or interesting - when all you've got is a "Democrat Good Republican Bad" hammer, everything looks like a nail. My theory (admittedly seemingly preposterous for now) isn't even a value judgement in the least that this shift is good or bad or somehow makes one side better or worse. It isn't partisan in that sense at all. Just a bold prediction.
I'll grant you that it's bold. But hey, if the white trash rodeo wins out over the christian nationalist over the heart of the republican party I'll be thrilled and give you full credit.
That’s really spurring. It turns out boomers like to smoke some weed from time to time. And I can understand them because it does help to relieve some kinds of pain, and maybe it makes them a little happier.
Here in Canada it’s also not that difficult to buy weed from shops like Toronto Dispensary near me. and not only weed because you can also find CBD oil, gummies, cookies, and even chocolate – anything you like.
I personally try to be as careful as possible about it. I do smoke weed, but only on rare occasions, and I never buy it myself.

Okay bot you're getting a little closer to speaking my language. Not sure I like it.
For sure, but that's just the nature of the crop. Had a co-worker that a hydroponics set up in his shed, and the second you walked around his house the smell hit you in the face. He only had 4 plants.
I think almost every American adult has tried cannabis. That's not surprising, because that's where the culture of smoking weed was born. All in all, I see no reason to be concerned. Some states are legalizing the use of marijuana. By doing so, they allow entrepreneurs to grow their businesses legally. What's more, it makes it easier to control the whole process and avoid criminal cases. I smoke pot with friends once a week and I think it's absolutely normal. We buy quality product from one of the Best Oklahoma dispensaries.

I never see it but I can tell you (friends tell me 😉) that what Boomers passed around in 1969 was one tenth of the strength that’s out there now. Are your friends all falling asleep? 😛
Works for me. Fire and Rescue Departments and EMT’s (like my nephew) are now approaching the status of rolling NarCan dispensaries in some places.

Back then you'd smoke an entire joint passed around with a couple people to get high.
Now, you only need one or two drags and you are set.
The improved quality has reduced the amount of quantity you need to get the same high.
I had to teach my dad this the hard way --- he asked me to give him a J and I explicitly told him to only take a few puffs off of it and then go inside and see how he felt. But of course being the macho Vietnam vet he is, he smoked three-quarters of it and got a super bad case of couch lock, lol.
The bots seem to love this thread. Interesting to see how long some of them have been here.
What do you like to bust out for a social smoking sesh with a new weed friend? Here are my go-tos regardless of who it is:
Sativa goldmom. Weed has come a long ways since the summer of ‘69.
Recreational weed quality has to be nearing the peak humans will achieve now. There will rare batches of buds that are next level and in that way the flower game will have a fine cigar aspect, but nothing is going to top the potency of the concentrate products available in states that have legal recreational. The stuff that has just started are the lab products that are different combos of cannabinoids extracted from pot and hemp plants. I bet they eventually come up with some good gentle and non-psychoactive OTC medications for stuff like nausea, stimulating appetite, suppressing appetite, insomnia. Hell maybe anxiety/depression.
