  1. Legalize it federally like alcohol and control it. How dumb does the Media and the Feds think we are. Lower the taxes, and let capitalism take hold so prices will drop and the illegal market will dissolve over time. The black market will always be there a little just like with Alcohol. Some people still make ā€œillegalā€ Wine & Moonshine. We need to move on. The government thinks we donā€™t notice them creating the problem then pointing the finger in the other direction.

  2. Anytime people try undoing God's laws they must be met with questions and scepticism.
    When God gave mankind rights to the herb and plant who decided to change that giving criminals abilities to control and monopolies what's already granted?

  3. Funny how people over seas with fat pockets come here and buy up land to keep putting weed that is contaminated. Literally got contaminated weed going around cali atm.

  4. They growing and operating in the desert in Ca. ALSO! banging it out with cartels…..here in the US…..
    Thanks Biden and haris!….oh yeah, Obama too since he legalized cartels to operate in our country

  5. Legal weed is taxed to death in Los Angeles so thats not the answer. The Chinese and Arabs who supply the black market are working together and are starting to breach white market with illegally grown product that will pass regulatory testing. It smokes just fine but the power and water were stolen and the money goes overseas.

  6. The Black Market has been entrenching itself in America since 1937. It's not going anywhere. As soon as the legal states start getting too greedy with the cost people will go back to the black market.

  7. Marijuana was legalized under President Carter but with Federal Limits being only legal for adults 21 and older and only being allowed to grow up to 2 Plants on your private property for personal consumption on private property… šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø

  8. they need to let some of it play out, ensuring it doesnt spill over, and evaluate precisely where cheatin china stacks up with the few criminal competitors and what sorts of deals they might have to come to. its still a symbol of beijing joes america, between his spy balloon favors and his chinese police station construction promises, but its also an example of americas freedoms always a convenient target for criminals to exploit.

  9. Before legalized medical weed. Buy an oz of weed o n the street for 200 ish. Buy an oz out the medical disepnsary, of good quality, probably pushing 400. The government wants all the money.

  10. "CANNABIS"! Marijuana is a derogatory term. Just legalize on the fed level already! Nearly 70% of the population is in favor. It should be a commodity, and cut this BS out

  11. Seems like a lot of false information I was typing my comments before I actually finish washing this video which I'm only halfway through still but the lady says cannabis is really expensive in New York total bullcrap it's $50 an ounce I've seen it for $30 an ounce it goes all the way up to 200 something dollars an ounce of but this news report is completely bullcrap. Is why it's so cheap in York is because it's so under-regulated currently and is currently what the people would like to see. Give it one year it'll get regulated into Oblivion like the rest of them. Unlike Pennsylvania which is still pretty much the most expensive one in the whole country. I've seen g of oil being sold for $120 un Pa medical market………..

  12. On a side-note what's the most ironic is actually would I trust the black-market Chinese weed more than the mafia Monopoly put in place by the "Americans"…. The medical cannabis in Pennsylvania sucks so bad my brain hurts…. Diley get it because I want to abide by the law but most average Americans that don't give a crap about the law all laugh at me for buying the legal cannabis. Triple the price half the quality, guaranteed at sprayed with something and probably filtered for mold and mildew….

  13. Even the Chinese realize that the legal cannabis market in america is so rigged that it's not worth getting into… Lol seems like lawmakers need to legalize cannabis a little more so people don't just keep relying on Black market Chinese weed that could have possibly some crazy crap in it… But I'm pretty sure the United States elected officials are just going to let this slide right by and let the Chinese do whatever they want and not let Americans grow their own cannabis……

  14. Gotta stop that. I donā€™t care if they have the best of the best acapoco gold no not china weed no thatā€™s a no and this coming from a doer in fact Iā€™m doing as Iā€™m typing this. No I donā€™t want it I want my gawdam smoke to be American ok thatā€™s not asking for much at all !!!

  15. What a rude and biased presentation… Why are they have Lee suggesting that the Chinese government has something to do with it they're using flags in the discussion and they're saying Chinese like it's state-funded I mean that's just ridiculous they are business people that are free to travel to America and they live in America and there's millions of Chinese people here just like many other countries and the fact that people from China in Destin this and that it's just like saying Chinese fentanyl and having state flags of China

  16. Raphael Mechoulam is often referred to as the "father of cannabis research" because of his pioneering work in the field. In 1963, he successfully isolated and elucidated the chemical structure of cannabidiol (CBD), one of the primary non-psychoactive compounds found in the cannabis plant. A year later, in 1964, he and his research team were the first to isolate and synthesize delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive compound responsible for the "high" associated with marijuana consumption. He has the answers to all your questions

  17. I'm sick & tired of this Sinsemella!! Break Out the Columbian Red Bud & I'll start Smokin Grass again!!
    All the Chlorophyll in this weed results in roaches that smell like Dandelions & HAIR!!
    RED BUD or Gold Bud!! I Don't care!!
    Just give me some quality pot that doesn't render one a drooling idiot & tastes GREAT!!
