the reason i posted this link is because of this quote, which features the name phillip morris
“I’ll give you two reasons,” Craig said. “One is big tobacco. Did you know that Phillip Morris just bought 400 acres of land up in Northern California? The minute marijuana becomes legal, they’ll mass produce and flood the market. And of course, they’ll add the same toxins they put in regular cigarettes to get you addicted, and very little THC, so you’ll have to buy more… In short, they’re going to ruin weed.”
now i'm pro-legalising because i don't want people in jail for such dumb shit,losing jobs etc.
but i'm pretty worried that yeah, big corporations will probably clear cut some massive area in bolivia and grow some chemical laden weed with terminator seeds and fuck loads of additives.
i think it could be a great thing for farmers and smokers if corporations were kept out of it. setting limits on how much can be grown by a single group, only allowing the sale of cannabis grown within the united states and stuff like that
but yeah the government won't do that and we're fucked

you could say the same thing about vegetables or coffee, the fact is most people, when given those choices will choose the cheaper and better distributed option despite the fact that it's trash
