Although I did commit some light fraud, it was in the interest of the common good I swear it! I think we can all agree that it is total BS that weed was ever illegal in the first place, right? Hemp was seen as a fierce rival to the tobacco industry, so the lobbyists paid the bribes, changed the laws, and convinced the government to condemn marijuana as “the devil’s lettuce.” For years kids were brainwashed into thinking that this helpful plant was diabolical, so what I did was trying to right that historical wrong.
The cops called it medical cannabis prescription forgery, I called it helping out the little guy.
It didn’t last long anyway, not because I got caught, but because the cannabis dispensaries were too expensive to scam. It turns out that even with a medical cannabis card in hand, you pay about twice what you pay for weed on the street. Granted, the dispensary has far better quality of cannabis on their shelves, but holy smokes is it expensive! After you get past the wonder of seeing so many kinds of cannabis all in the same place, it’s just a really expensive store. I like having the option, but without medical insurance to help pay for the cannabis it is just cost prohibitive for most of the people I know. For now I will keep supporting my local cannabis dealer, and just take whatever stuff he has that week. One day maybe the cost of medical cannabis will be more reasonable, I surely do hope so!
