What is your basis for this trust? If it's a general faith in the good nature of other people, then I respect and envy that. But lacking that faith, I see a system where federal oversight is nonexistent and state oversight is probably some combination of incompetent or corrupt. If I had to guess, I think most companies in this industry are probably on the level. But a commercial incentive for doctoring lab reports clearly exists (even for independent labs) and at least a few companies have been busted for it.
Federal legalization and FDA/USDA oversight can't come soon enough.
- snarfy 4y agoYou seem to put a lot of trust in the federal and state governments. I trust their product because it is a highly competitive market and it is a premium product. If one cartridge says it's 77% and the next says it's 67%, you can tell when you vape it. People would just buy other products if they were inconsistent.

- ClumsyPilot 4y agoThis is downright silly -> there are numerous markets where consumers were getting duped for years before anyone found out. The market for cosmetics is highly competitive and yet it's full of counterfeit goods containing horse urine. This in particukar is very similar to original snake oil sales men. The consumers do not know the health effect or product purity untill many years down the line.
