This kid is a fucking idiot. I propose we raise the voting age to 25.
sponsors say the main reason for the proposal isn't revenue, it's safety
so what?
its called business...
have you ever run a small business?
it costs money.
look guy i understand your a scared young person...
but your emotions have become a detriment to your logic..
put down the hateraid and listen to people rather than spew regurgitated lies and nonsense.
the article you quoted has nothing to do with TC2010.
How is this not related to TC2010? If TC2010 was not in the works, do you believe they would be granting grow op permits for 275k?
And just because its a business, doesn't mean someone should have to fork over 275k JUST TO GROW a weed. Its greed, bread from years and years of incompetent/corrupt politicians.
Do you guys see what Dicks plan was all along... LOL!
Oakland approves massive grows; 275k per permit ... Rich Lee Wins One
The Oakland City Council isn't waiting for November to begin jumbling the legal rules. The Council's Public Safety Committee approved licensing wholesale pot growing Tuesday, 3-to-1.
KALW News reporter Ali Winston reports from that meeting that sponsors say the main reason for the proposal isn't revenue, it's safety (as their name implies): residential electrical fires more than doubled in the city in the past three years, and officials think there's a good connection between that increase and unregulated pot "grow houses."
That said, the committee proposes that applicants pay fees of over $275,000 per operation.
Approved by the committee and full City Council, four large growers would be permitted in the first year.
One grower said he embraced regulation but argued that the plan would force medium- and small-scale cultivators to close down, move, or "go back underground into the dark ages."
The ordinance doesn't yet set a limit on the size of the large cultivators
The plan also would permit Oakland's four licensed dispensaries to sell to retailers across California.

Last month rich lee purchased a 20 acre plot to build his new growing facilities ...
omg you really didnt pay attention in economics. read up kid. here is a free lesson.
there is nothing about this that forces small growers to stop growing. The market is big enough for all. Richard lee is being smart.
Do think only 4 growers could supply the whole state, because they cant. Why? because the demand for LEGAL cali bud will sky rocket due to an influx of hash bars and tourist going to them. There will be able to be hash bars built with a view where you can enjoy scenery. There can be hotels based on hash tourism and having a chill place to stay where smoking is permitted.
^where else would you buy quality weed and hash in a legal market? not 7-11, that is sure as shit. med shops are for patients, its like a pharmacy. The only place you can enjoy hash and even alcohol in some places out side of your home legally is a private club. this is a loop hole becuase it is private property where all paying guest are permitted to smoke there, because in your bill is a free membership to the club. It doesnt have to even be a club, it just has to be a private business.
SF, LA, and many other small towns up in the triangle will permit them because they flat out need the tax revenue. I dont think san diego will have them though, that county is retarded about weed.
Open your eyes! Dont be fooled!
VOTE NO ON PROP 19!
That might work for use, but it won't work for sales if the city has decided to not allow for such.
Lot of cites that have banned MMJ disp/collectives/whatever could use the tax money. Yet they don't allow them.
^what, no more false bull shit to spout so you just post the same exact post like 4 times in the last 3 pages?
get lost already. you lose. your arguments are all invalid, and you have no clue what you are talking about. not even in one post.
you have now proven that you refuse to learn anything that goes against some emotional bull shit heard.
I have come to the coclusion that you are just plain fucking stupid. I dont wanna b name calling, but you really are one of the Dumbest fucking posters I have ever come across.
I swear you must have the equivalent of a 5th grade education.
^ i go commando. underwear cant contain me, I have to be free to swing brother. lol jk
dont worry I am harsher on the internet than in real life because you cant hear me so I have to emphasize with words.
I with drawl my comment calling you stupid because you are at least quick with the comebacks. I just dont find your arguments convincing at all.
I am sure your not a bad guy at all, and your burns are too fun. It is no fun for me to burn people with lame comebacks. it makes for poor sport when they take the burn as personal cause they come back with anger instead of a clever snappy comeback.
I still say prop 19 is good for you. It is a good excuse to get a horticulture degree too if want, get out of school and you will be 21 by then if you arnt yet now. Then be a breeder, and sell your genetics to all growers with our fear of persecution. made in the shade man.
geez 275k for a damn permit? just more proof its about the rich getting richer. no one but big business can afford that price tag...
And just because its a business, doesn't mean someone should have to fork over 275k JUST TO GROW a weed. Its greed, bread from years and years of incompetent/corrupt politicians.
