i think most people are realists when it comes to government, not pessimists. i cited a historical precedent in a comparable industry and product that was subject to a lifted prohibition - i think its entirely reasonable to expect the same slow pace for cannabis changes, after the initial laws get passed.

personally, it makes more sense to me to have a professional making and dosing my edibles, or using a commercial press for rosin which would yield better than using a hair straightener. i'm more than willing to pay someone to do a job i think they'll do better than i would. i can make my own beer at home too, and its cheaper, but i dont.

we live in a society of convenience - i dont need another hobby, i dont have time for another hobby. i could have made my own pizza for dinner tonight, but i got takeout at a restaurant because it was faster and most likely better than i could make (im a terrible cook)

i do understand though, that basically edibles and concentrates were too controversial to be included in the proposed law out of fear that it would slow down/completely stall the passing of any new laws.
