Edit: ^^^^^^ Yes it does. "Reasonable compensation." Is millions of dollars cash in your own home "reasonable compensation?"
the question is how to make it more affordable and accessible to everyone who needs it. And have a workable solution that can be implemented.
All out legalization is still years away, and federal recognition of medical mj laws won't happen until there's a Democrat dominated executive and legislative branch.
So what is a realistic, workable solution?

its not quite clear. it says were allowed to cover reasonable expenses. now how reasonable should one charge for a full grow? 100$ oz? $200 oz? one person may grow outside in compost so it costs him nothing. vs the inside grower with hydro and mad nutes.inflorescence said:
how much expense does the state allow to be compensated?
my 2 cents--> im sorry but im not growing anyone "FREE WEED", im not looking for mass profit, just simple expense recoup.

Charles Lynch wouldn't have been arrested if he wasn't making $2 million in profit, the only thing the feds care about...
You think he'd be busted if he was giving it away?
Either way, it's fucked up and the feds shouldn't be in California. But that's the risk you take, make millions and risk the DEA busting in.

Pay attention to the last paragraph. I think everyone needs to know how non-profit companies work before debating the merit of them.

Even tho I strongly oppose your take on it, I have to give you Respect for staying level-headed--
To me, the most workable solution is to let it run it's course...and when the dust clears...and growers can do so without intimidation for providing a commodity...and dispensaries can operate without the fear of arrest every day....then, we can really get serious, and I have no doubt that most Dispensaries and Growers would contribute to a fund for those struggling to get their meds-- But this cannot and will not happen until we can allow those providing these services to make some $$--

Such a slippery slope.
My family is good, "we've got meat on the table, but you know, angus sure would taste a lot better."
I'll get back to ya when we're swimming in Angus.
You just gotta bite the bullet and say what you have is adequate, and that you can help out others without needing anything more.

What makes you think I have Angus, and not hamburger??
Once again, what are you doing?

Well I'll certainly take suite101.com's viewpoint over the AG of the entire freakin state anyday.
I suppose you'll be posting a wikipedia as a retort. lol

Can we petition the state to fund me a mile by mile grow room and I'll start pumping out all the free weed I can! Feed me, give me a bathroom and internet access, let me smoke some of it and I'll happily be the weed slave! Being able to enjoy that would be completely worth the free labor, and I'm sure would be able to produce enough to make a difference! *Starts Praying*

there never will be such a thing as "non profit"
you see many of the big NPs claim non profit<<<yet the exec's
make million dollar salaries... dont even get me startd about pharma
they are biggest drug king pin
fact is this country was built on free enterprise. people deserve to get paid
and if they can get what they can than so be it... but if this were
rescheduled and it did not carry the heavy risks it currently does
many more people would be growing>>and we all know the rules of
supply and demand...

The law of supply and demand is as immutable as gravity. Deal with it.
As soon as anybody asks too much for their product you are completely free to walk away.
Supply=good.
Liberty=good.
Demand, interdiction, theft by thugs with & without badges, closure for making profit etc etc ALL bad.
Prohibition bad.
Liberty good.
Simple.
WTF is the mental block?

Damn straight, Bro! The liberals want everybody to have free or cheap meds, but you don't see any of them putting up $100,000 of their own money to fund a med club(non-profit). Who is going to put up that kind of money, pay the employees a fair wage, pay the huge rent on a storefront, pay all the bills,security, taxes,etc,etc,etc..... and then be told, BTW, you can't make any profit. You can only do this because you are a good guy.
I have a couple dozen med patients for whom I grow. Most pay $50/quarter...some I give it free. I do this full time and don't make anything more than expenses. I agree clubs charge way too much, but all the feel-good Commies who want free meds rarely rush to pay the Tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees when the Feds bust the med clubs. The liberals just say that it is great that they got busted because they make too much profit. Let me ask you this. Who the fuck are you going to buy from if all the for-profit med clubs get busted? Do you think your local street dealer has a kind heart and will give you discounts because you are sick or are a whiney little bitch? Good Luck with that!!!
