Sorry dude but guilt by association is NEVER a legitimate argument.
Also IF one is in CA than one has MANY options for obtaining medical cannabis. Your argument about pricing is specious. California produces wine that sells for $3.00 a bottle (two buck Chuck now costing $3) and California produces wines that sell for more than $100 per bottle. Cheap wine producers and consumers aren't "Given a bad name" just because other wine makers use a different business model.
There is NO LEGITIMATE argument to prohibit any adult from any activity which causes no harm to third parties.
For my own good, For the children, For the common good: These are all fucking tools of slavery. Wake up people and take back all freedoms which are your birth right!

Discovery Channel is set to announce a potentially controversial new series: A docu-soap reality show set in the country’s largest medical marijuana distributorship and starring a pot reform activist. This fall, the network will unveil Weed Wars, where cameras follow the day-to-day dealings of a California ganja store.
The show follows Steve DeAngelo, the owner of Oakland’s Harborside Health Center, which serves 80,000 clients. According to the network, DeAngelo strives to provide patients with the highest-quality product and uses his business to promote the national regulation and taxation of cannabis.
“Weed Wars fearlessly pulls back the curtain on a once illegal and still controversial world,” said Nancy Daniels, executive vp at Discovery Channel. “From the inner workings of the business to Steve’s distinctive leadership style, Weed Wars is a fascinating glimpse into this highly unique setting. Like Gold Rush or Deadliest Catch, these are guys pursuing their own version of the American Dream.”

California passed the Compassionate Use Act in 1996 that permitted legalized pot dispensaries where customers can select from a variety of toke-able or edible products if they have a doctor’s approval. Some have accused the Act of essentially legalizing marijuana. But in addition to providing relief to some patients struggling with severe illnesses, the passage has also resulted in a new breed of local-owned brick-and-mortar outlets at a time when retail stores are shutting down as commerce increasingly shifts to big box stores and Internet.
The show will follow the journey of the plant from germination to harvesting to sales at Harborside, which has opened up a second location in San Jose despite “constant police monitoring and security sweeps,” says to the network.
What do you think, will you check out Weed Wars this fall? It’s sort of like Cake Boss with pot … or not.
Medical cannabis is legitimate, LEGAL to produce, and consume; that is why you can find it in all kinds of varieties and prices in California.
You are certainly correct that the market controls the pricing on the huge varieties of medical cannabis products. The free market system, and capitalism are responsible for the amazing abundance that California cannabis users get to enjoy.
If you don't like the free market system I am very sorry for you and would ask you to look at the state of New Jersey as the wrong way to allow patients to obtain medical cannabis. How many New Jersey patients are suffering in huge pain and wasting away while the politicians keep the rest of the populace free from evil cannabis?
Your cost argument is absurd it assumes a simple cost of production which you then haphazardly apply to an entire diverse industry. What is wrong with allowing huge variety of products and price points?
hello 2 buck chuck...
