This dispensary initiative will bring about more free marijuana than ever before.  One tenth of their revanue has to go toward the low income program and research.  Only by allowing people to spend money on marijuana will we be able to funnel money into helping those that need the medicine for free.

So do you support Measure 74?  You should because it will get us closer to the idea of legal use of marijuana.

Yes.  The current cardholders will still be able to do everything they can do now under Measure 74.  The only changes will be for the two new cards created.  The producers and dispensary employees will be created and there will be added regulations for them only.  I am so sorry he has pain that cannot be treated under legal pharmaceuticals.

This measure does limit producers to growing 24 plants.  Why not support this measure?

I want to see legalization and the end to the black market.  But patients need medicine now.  That can pass.  Vote yes on 74.

Corporations will not want to touch an industry that forces 10% of the revanue to be paid back to low income patients and research.

The people that will make money under measure 74 will have to give 10% of their revenue to the state for low income patients and research. This won't be about making money. Also, they will be subject to inspection. It will be about legitimate business.
