I'm honestly not sure that's true. Legalization and regulation will make it easier to grow legally, but it's hard to undercut someone who isn't paying for the land they use. This is similar to how cheap ASICs and electricity haven't pushed out botnets mining bitcoin - free is still cheaper than cheap.
- devopsproject 10y agoWhen was the last time you went looking for moonshine or had moonshine offered to you?
- Kalium 10y agoIf you know the right people - or are in the right areas - it's not unusual or even uncommon. I know people who make moonshine in California.
- magic_beans 10y agoI think the vast majority of people DON'T know the right people.
- Kalium 10y agoProbably true! But I stumbled into it in Oakland without even trying, and large swaths of Appalachia have longstanding moonshining traditions.

- DiNovi 10y agomoonshine isn't even the write analogy. When was the last time someone offered you home-grown tobacco?
- cafard 10y agoWithin the last five years, when a retired co-worker came through. (I guess that working on old cars didn't fill enough of his time.) Actually, he didn't offer it to me, but another guy in the office got a jar.
