I'd be okay if the State Stores sold weed.

It’s $75 to get a card.

The medical market in PA is so bad. Recreational markets are always better.

Not to mention that holding a medical cannabis card technically federally prohibits you from purchasing or possessing a firearm. Cannabis is still federally illegal, so when you're filling out your background check and information sheet and they ask if you use drugs and you say no because it's legal in your state, your technically lying in the federal government's eyes. A lot of people have argued this with me, to which I say literally Google it lol. It's the top Google result.

This is a great point thank you. I work in tech and bet a medical card could affect basic clearances/insurance too.

Yeah if you have a clearance at the federal level, it more than likely would affect it. Or you're at least be questioned about it I would assume. Actually I'm almost certain of it because I have a couple friends that have low level government clearances and they abstain from cannabis use entirely. Money's too good lol

That's crazy talk. I've been to Vegas and dc, and PAs medical options and pricing are very comparable to both.

Maybe edibles and concentrates and stuff but not flower and not in decent amounts. I have a friend who buys in DC and drives it back to NC with the prices she gets.

Plus you can legally grow a few plants in recreational states. Medical is cool but recreational should be a given by now.

I experienced both, and disagree. Now dc is strictly medical, but people can grow there and gift, so maybe your friend has a connect.

I haven't kept in touch so things may have changed. Also, you can disagree if you want but that doesn't change the fact that I could lose my house if I grow a plant and there is nowhere to legally pick up an ounce at a decent price.

The PA market suits some but it really depends on how you partake.

And that's what's really wrong. Should be able to grow your own likes vegetables.

That’s state dependent from my experience, the medical markets in Colorado and California are both very solid.

Those states both have recreational markets to compete with.

They both had medical markets prior to going recreationally legal (just as PA does currently).
