Colorado, the weed capitol is awash in cash. Living here we all know it. Wait untill you see the numbers next year. Real estate is exploding in the entire state. I cant imagine how much is going out the back doors but i have no doubt its semi’s. The cash is flowing in. Sorry. There might be some vauable info in the article, no doubt there is pain and cost to addiction. But there are filthy riches too. Alcohol, tobacco, drugs are all super fantastically profitable for some. Us, right now. Better get off your dithers and make the adjustments or watch your coffers suffer. Dont think for a second that becuase you backwards ass fascist fucks in AZ arnt going to have gobs of problems with plebs on weed cuz yer so enlightened as to have draconian laws punishing stoners. Hows that workin out. By all means bury your heads in the sand and go down with the ship. Were Blazin a trail, with your states money.

There only reason drugs are more expensive than alcohol is because the Federal and state governments pay tens of thousand of taxpayer sucking parasites – not to mention the other tens of thousand now hanging out on golf courses on the taxpayer tab- to harass the junkiies and incarcerate(prisons are expensive too) those who just want to get high whilst all the alkies slowly die of cirrhosis.

Mr Chen,
Are all the good folks working for Coors, Budweiser, Jack Daniel’s, Marlboro, Camel, or any of the millions of others or any of the Accountants, delivery Drivers all equal to drug dealing kids living in their parents basement bereft of ” an honest job”. Your statement is so ill thought out it fucking hurts my head.

Yes awash in cash. For tangible numbers, not my forte, look at Zillow anywhere in the Denver metro area, look at our unemployment, look at our population influx. My experience with the boom is limited to my expertise, High End Commercial and Residential Architectural Metal Fabrication, and business is very good, we are going into our standard busy season and booked solid before it even really starts. I have a network of suppliers, contractors, builders, and subcontractors that I have built overs the last 25 years and yes it is happening.
The Tax revenue from the Pot shops is the tip of the Ice Berge, all of the back door cash is slushing around our local economy raising all boats. For instance, my main supplier desperately needs new warehousing space to accommodate the 20-50% spike in sales. So he has been going to listings first day and usually there are from 3 to 15 customers mostly “dealers” looking for grow space and many come with cash, literally. Like right out of Scarface, these douche bags show up with a million dollars in a fucking bag. Where is that cash coming from. It’s coming from your state, and all the others dithering. Is it measurable, I don’t know, maybe at the State GDP level. Would you rather it was feeding despicable Cartel fucks?
Also, maybe more importantly, your not just sending us your “Stoner” money, you are all sending us your future, our population is exploding with the 20 and 30 something crowd, yeah alot of them are stoners but very many of them are bright hard working kids/young adults looking for better opportunity, and I fuckin bet many of them are going to find it here and stay.
Will there be problems, Damn right there will be, don’t act like AZ doesn’t have Drug problems. We are going to manage them differently, hopefully to our betterment. Cling to your failed policies, lets watch.

Ottomatik: There’s an ‘A-pot-acary’ on the 16th street mall downtown Denver. Go there sometime and take a look at what legal pot has brought. There are HORDES of filthy beggars I haven’t seen before and for the first time since I moved here the mall reeks of urine. Almost all are young and male. It looks like a bum encampment. The line up at the Apotacary is almost exclusively young and male. I think it’s very sad these young people have nothing better to look forward to than their next joint.

Chen,
I was merely pointing out, there are millions of Americans currently employed by “legal” drug business, drugs listed in the article presented no less. Equating Coloradans with basement living black-marketeers and reserving the hallowed ” honest job” title for all the rest, glosses over some gaping inconsistencies. I’ll take a tylenol, or maybe I’ll chew a skunky gummy from one of our millions of dispensaries. Thanks for the banter.

Your telling me the 16th Street mall JUST fell from grace….uh huh. Alas there is no doubt, Denver is/has become the Weed Capitol. My hope is the entire Left Coast follows suit and Florida, followed by the entire nation.
After the USSA legalizes weed I hope they put all drugs on a Dispensary Program. Coke, Heroin, Meth….all. The War on Drugs is lost. Just like every war, the losers are us, we pay with our money, our children, our happiness and our lives. This one has been no different. At least we have the guts to say enough is enough, and do something other than militarize the Police. People are going to do what they want, fuck the battlefield, lets trade.

Yeah I know, specious, also we are having a fracking boom as well, but I am sure you can believe there is a lot of weed being grown and sold. I am in the” lets let it play out camp”, there is some intense conservative push for repeal. At this point I think it would be best for all if we let it play out. You can have the advantage of watching for years before deciding. I do hope some others jump on, most of us do not want to be THE weed state.

As money gets tight on the local level, the public will start to question the sanity of the war on drugs (esp. the incarceration costs). But in many cases, government will simply lay off police and jail employees long before there are changes in law.

Take the money out of drugs via legalization and the supply will dry up along with the criminal activity associate ..and that’s not a good thing for DEA agents looking for a free ride on easy street with perks.
The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that pot farmers in the Sinaloa region have stopped planting due to a massive drop in wholesale prices, from $100 per kilo down to only $25. One farmer is quoted as saying: “It’s not worth it anymore. I wish the Americans would stop with this legalization.”
