As for the option to buy illegal, a lot of growers would just leave the market. Marijuana would become like any other consumer good. People preferring to know what they get through brands and the convenience of buying in stores outweighing any price benefit from buying from a local grower.
I think there is a lot of talking going on here without a lot of evidence.
