Ask yourself what Bob Marley would think about the plastic packaging of weed?
Taxing weed is like putting electricity in wires, against Nature, as Tesla demonstrated, forcing buds into plastic containers, little ones, bigger ones, and many with lids like little cosmetic or cream jars, converted to the cannabis industry. The days of the sandwich baggie are long gone, some of these zip locks are specially designed and heavy plastic, so not to let the stink of the weed be known by others. Who would have guessed that a massive industrial plastic packaging industry has now mobilized to grow on scale to destroy us forever with the outcome of the Cannabis Industry Plastic Catastrophe
Vancouver could have become the best case study for cottage industry, there were already over a hundred groovy places you could go, to choose a hand grown plant, in a legal environment, and pay low prices if you want. Or sample a selection to the top shelf, even a vending machine with hand rolled joints, plus many had places had dab bars and vapour lounges, this was great for the city because it creates local economy and gets people off the streets, in a very organic manner. The the Gov got involved and killed what had been blossoming. Cannabis culture was still-born.
Canada Government has now launched an industrial cannabis-plastic-packaging-complex that will bury this planet in more plastic all for more taxes and so they can create less jobs, cut out all the merchants, steal the dreams of countless millions of Canadians, add 46 new laws and include seizure powers, like for smoking and driving you lose your car and that’s just one of the 46 new laws designed to benefit the fraud that it is.
Funny and sad at the same time is how a drama teacher pretending to be a leader of a country tricked the masses to think the new plan would be unicorns and rainbows so the population signed-up on mass and provided new data points for future profiling and intrusive marketing practices. Like lambs to the slaughter, even smart folks thought; “hooray for Canada” let’s get a legal weed license so we can now get stopped at the border of every other advanced country and immediately tagged if they do let us in.
The shops were crushed by the boots of money, greed and power.
Amsterdam once had the perfect model too, and at one time Los Angeles had over 600 legal dispensaries in the LA basin. I still hold a California license, which I bought on Venice Beach, after a short Doctor examination. The scene was incredible, safe legal and legit. In the early days of California legalizing it looked like it would be a great thing but then like so many things, it was destroyed for the many little shops, so the control could be amassed by just a few powerful brands and that’s the plastic catastrophe.
Plastic is the wires of electricity, it’s a trick. Grow your own and also support your local dealer and use glass containers, never use plastic when you can help it and stop buying weed online from your Government, take responsibility for every plastic container you have to purchase.
The greatest slogan of the pot counter culture was to overgrow your government and to outgrow them too. In other words only buy from your friends and if you don’t have any that grow, then maybe you shouldn’t smoke at all, as a matter of fact, that is the best idea and one of the reasons I quit smoking weed, another was it’s now legal so the fun was gone. Oh well, I don’t miss it much and know I’ll smoke again, since it hasn’t harmed me.
Bob Marley – redemption song
Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
‘Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songsEmancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
‘Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look? Ooh
Some say it’s just a part of it
We’ve got to fulfill the BookWon’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
‘Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songsEmancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy
‘Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it’s just a part of it
We’ve got to fulfill the book
Won’t you have to sing
These songs of freedom?
‘Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
All I ever had
Redemption songs
These songs of freedom
