    Default Cali Pot dreams turn into public health nightmare

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/a...nightmare.html

    Everybody try to act surprised


    A row of luxury 'healing' creams is guarded by a locked glass cabinet, gilded in gold trim.The packaging is stylishly minimal – clean and white with small black typeface – and beside the tubs sit decorative, artificial fruit and images of sprawling fields, with a small flyer to remind customers of the high-quality, organic nature of the products.
    I spot one pot – a snip at $43, or roughly £35 – that is specifically designed for 'replenishing and rejuvenating' tissues in the, er, vagina. Alongside me, expensively dressed customers peruse the goods, clutching colourful iced smoothies and juices.


    I'm in upmarket Beverly Hills in Los Angeles, California, in one of the area's many so-called 'wellness' shops, just a stone's throw from designer boutiques such as Gucci and Saint Laurent. It's a far cry from Holland & Barrett, not least because all the products here at the Serra boutique contain high-grade, genetically engineered cannabis.
    There are balms and lotions, things to eat and, of course, to smoke. One display cabinet showcases dozens of dried cannabis flowers, each bud sitting in its own pretty porcelain dish, labelled according to its supposed benefit: happiness, creativity, relaxation.

    Michelle Leopold, 57, from San Francisco, has fallen victim to the worst possible consequences of the normalisation of cannabis use. In 2019, her 18-year-old son Trevor (together, above) died after dabbling with prescription painkillers – and unwittingly taking a tablet of powerful opioid Fentanyl – following four years of addiction to cannabis
    sorry, but I'm not seeing a valid connection between legalized marijuana and deaths from fentanyl.....

    it takes a special kind of authoritarian to allow gambling, alcohol, tobacco, but not pot

    anyway, the genie is out of the bottle and will not be going back in.

    So you make it illegal (sorry, but that wouldn't work, see: prohibition). But why would you shut down the economy?
