No more questions about whether I'm going to sink into my couch, or whether I'll be too baked to answer an important call that comes later in the evening.

One day I'll probably whine that they keep jacking the sin taxes, but I'm currently happy that at least the federal government did something right, for both themselves and the populace.
But they could have done so much better.

Being forced to buy prepackaged flower is terrible. In Amsterdam, in Seattle you can see and smell the product before buying. The packaging is stupid and wasteful.

Worst of all is that we ended up with these big corporate growers. There's no room in the market place for boutique or small batch growers.

I'd love see cannabis cafés, similar to Amsterdam, where they could offer their own shop grown strains and things like tasting nights. Basically a boutique experience.

I would be willing to pay a premium in that scenario.

Instead we have this keep it all hidden, sell overpriced, dried out prepackaged crap that you can't even see before buying.

I suppose we could get there one day but I'm not optimistic.
