Late Tuesday (7-20-10) night the Oakland "City's politicians" past measures to allow large cannabis farms. If you want to be one of these farmers, you need to come up with some cash: $5,000 for admin costs, "$3million for insurance"...don't know if that's in cash or a $3million insurance policy, and $211,000 a year to grow.
Needless to say this has the small farmers upset turning Cannabis "capitalist". Along with permitting large farms, the city is planning on raising it's 1.8% tax to 12%.
Seems it has started. Cannabis going from completely criminal to capital. My view on the political system...this will pass in Nov no matter how the votes come out. I had suspicion, and maybe it's my paranoia about our country, but it doesn't seem to matter how we vote anymore. They're gearing up for something that hasn't even passed yet, like they know it will. Why are these things (federal income tax, gold standard abolished, cannabis farms) always passed late at night under everyone's noses????
Good luck to all you small farmers out there...it's gonna get shitty. The price alone to be permitted to have a large farm absolutely ridiculous.
