It doesn’t seem pot for profit is quite there yet. I urge folks to watch the Netflix documentary Murder Mountain. It gives a lot more insight, though it investigates the murders of several and how others have gone missing in the pursuit of getting rich off the green trade in California, specifically one remote area in California, which I think was called Humboldt County, a beautiful area.
Bad idea to call it Kosher without an actual hechsher, which is gonna cost ‘em. Edibles would definitely need one, especially gummies (yes there are Kosher gummies). That said, if they can pull it off, I’d buy.
A few decades ago, NBC was in the embarrassing position of having paid some firm about a million dollars for a stylized ‘N’ logo, only to have it come out in the news that a small station in Nebraska or Nevada had paid a smaller firm about a hundred for an almost identical ‘N.’ And for the small station, the logo made more sense. It wasn’t as if NBC was changing their their call letters to just ‘N.’ They paid a million for only one letter.
Big money gets suckered by other big money when they lose sight of real, actual value.
My wife complains that for me it’s all zzzzzzz weed, that when I indulge I just nod off in my chair and let the kids run wild. My reply is that’s why I do it.
At the moment I have 9 different strains of packaged legal cannabis on my desk.
Some of the packaging is interesting. One company sells two half gram joints in a glow in the dark plastic tube, they include one match. I find that amusing.
Years ago, as my business was struggling to “get on its feet” my tax accountant mentioned an expense I hadn’t planned for. “Oh well”, I said. “At least it’s tax-deductible.” He smiled and said, “But first you need an income to deduct it from…”
Somewhere in the old National Lampoon pages, was some reefer packaging artwork, and amongst the brand names were Holy Smokes – “A ponder in every puff – A truth in every toke”
Unfortunately, there are many people who think just like Zipper here. I’ve seen a young couple get a “great deal” for $9,000 on a certain item that was listed at $12,000 (neither amount could they really afford anyway), so they “made” $3,000 and figured they could go out and spend it!
Christians have no business using mind altering drugs. Gal 5:19-24, the word “witchcraft” is a rootword “pharmakeia”, where we get our modern root pharmacy. To be clear, medicine that is beneficial is good.. but anything used in a twisted way can turn very wrong. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Galatians+5%3A19-24&version=NIV
How about we just sell weed, hmm? Good, clean, fast-acting THC that makes you briefly forget your troubles without the conceit that it will somehow save your soul or cleanse you spiritually.

He’s not far off. I’ve heard of Orthodox folks who put the kids to bed on Saturday nights and then got together with their friends to toke up.
And this in a Southern state where it is to this day not legal.

Reminds me of a very old joke:
Son, coming into the house breathlessly: Dad, I just saved us a buck and a half. I ran home behind the bus.
Father, slapping son upside the head: Spendthrift! You should have run home behind a cab.

Calling weed kosher without getting rabbinical approval is a one-way ticket to lawsuit land.

Well, while I agree with the ‘saving money is making money’ philosophy I question the choice of a Tesla. But, if your going to dream, dream big.
