but, this is merely the status quo. anybody can get a medical card.
as mentioned, it's fine if you smoke an ounce/week or something. but, most marijuana users don't smoke like that. most users are not habitual, but sporadic and spontaneous. social, even.
my consumption patterns would be on the lines of a gram or two a month, and not necessarily every month. so, i'm not going to plan my consumption patterns out. it's just not realistic.
so, this isn't a backup plan, unless you're medical, which is the status quo.
again: i will not mail order in bulk. i will continue to buy small amounts locally.
