People can drink as much as they want at whatever potency up to death. That's how it should be with weed. The difference is that weed won't take your life. The addiction potential is far lower, also.
Selective and vast breeding has made weed stronger along with modern cultivation methods. Plenty of organic growers out there.
I agree. I see no reason the government or science authority should have any place regulating the breeding, cultivation, processing and sale of the product as a drug or medication or anything at all. It should not be regulated. Never should have been in the first place. Giving institutions the power to regulate the cultivation of one's own land is wrong and anticompetitive if they intend to capitalize on regulated markets. They do it for profit. No other reason. Not for altruism, or moral imperative, or betterment of societal order.
The lack of profitability takes the cultural marketing out of society. No incentives. Grandma treating her arthritis pain so she can play with her grandkids is not the same patient as a college kid who has never felt real pain or consequence in their life toking up because she needs to feel socially accepted by the group.
Social consequences are another story. If I was a chief of a village 90% of the people I have met that smoke weed habitually would be banished to the wilderness as degenerates. The other 10% would be apothecaries.
