I'm so glad we don't have one. Everybody here has owned their houses to long, and there isn't any real way to enforce it here. Poor cities have their advantages. Like lack of funding to fuck with petty stuff.
I actually like that the price of quality bud is dropping. Selfish reason is that, the more affordable the product the wider the accesable market. Less selfish reason. I don't think quality pot should only be accessible to people with lot of money. I like that more people get to experience high quality buds more frequently. Even when it's getting smoked for fun, it's helping prevent a multitude of diseases, and pains. It's a regenerative plant.
Prices haven't gone down for flower at Nor-Cal dispensaries, even though most of the flowers you see now are greenhouse or light dep.
I feel like Prop 64 did more for concentrates. People know for sure that they've all been tested for solvents. Waaay more live resins, rosins, and other solventless extracts nowdays it seems, which is pretty sweet. I go straight to the concentrates section now.. Can't justify $35+ per 8th for larfy greenhouse flowers. Not when the same 35 bucks gets you a gram of freakin' delicious live resin. Some dispensaries are paying the sales tax now, as well.
That's how some of these places are trying to corner the market now IMO.. By absorbing the ridiculous taxes.
$35 1/8s popping up is better than it was a few years ago.
